Someone will have to sit staring at the floor when the other will run round and round looking at the sky with delight. A winner's joy is the graceful sorrow of the one on whose shoulder she climbed to lift the flag of her victory; delight for one, despair for the other; that's the rule of game; that's equally the inevitable truth of the other game we play: Life.
