"Then the other me you don't know must be as kind as the me you do know?" "Then the me you don't know must be the same as the me you do know,-else there would be two mes?" "And you are sure there can't be two mes?"
You know the one me, you say, and that is good." "Then why shouldn't you be good to other people as well as to me?" "That's just it I am good to you because I like to be good." "I don't know, except it be because it's good to be good to me." "Then I must be good to you because I choose to be good to you." "The kindest, goodest, best me in the world," answered Diamond, clinging to North Wind. That's the very point.-You can't be knowing the thing you don't know, can you?" "Ah! but which is me? I can't be two mes, you know." Here you are taking care of a poor little boy with one arm, and there you are sinking a ship with the other. "Then you do mean to sink the ship with the other hand?" "My dear boy, I never talk I always mean what I say." "Oh, dear North Wind! how can you talk so?" I shall only want one arm to take care of you the other will be quite enough to sink the ship."
You will feel the wind, but not too much. "Well, perhaps but I begin to think there are better things than being comfortable." "But it is surely more comfortable there?" It is a thousand times better to have them and the wind together, than to have only your hair and the back of your neck and no wind at all." “Ah, but, dear North Wind, you don't know how nice it is to feel your arms about me.
