[falling]

Todd: Aren't you scared of falling?

the Sandman: It is sometimes a mistake to climb; it is always a mistake never even to make the attempt.

Todd: What are you saying? That I ought to go back to the show? Not walk out? Is that what you're saying? ... You're just a dream. Listen, I've made up my mind.

the Sandman: If you do not climb you will not fall. This is true. But is it that bad to fail, that hard to fall? ... Sometimes you wake, and sometimes, yes, you die. ... But there is a third alternative.

- from "the Sandman: Fear of Falling"
