About This Quote
The windowpane was freezing, but I was pressing myself against it anyway, like one of those dazzled little kids at the aquarium, the ones that look like they want to melt through the glass, like they're about to swoon from an overdose of beauty. This is a great poem that not only tells us that we should be brave and face our fears but also that we should find beauty in things that are not beautiful. In this case, the windowpane is cold and unwelcoming, but as a child you can still see beauty in it.
