Quote #1
It looks as it has likewise looked for ages, as if it is ready to quit this life and tumble in. Right now though it is hosting the most lifelike event it has seen in quite some time. (336)
A little foreshadowing is good for the soul. Will is looking at the willow tree, half in half out of the water, and curiously equates the death of the girl nearby with a "lifelike event." Life does transform into death, though, we supposed.
Quote #2
Something comes out of you now. Unusual. Unheard of. It frightens you […] It comes out of you, somewhere in the diaphragm region and sounds as foreign to your ear as Mandarin Chinese. (442)
Will doesn’t recognize his response here. Though he doesn't realize it yet, this may be a moment in which he's starting to change.
