"Asi zvino ndakazoona kuti hazvizove zvakakwana." (BTW, kuve wakakwana mune yekurovedza muviri kunouya nezvikanganiso zvakakura.)

Yakanga iri panguva iyoyo apo Harrington anoti maonero ake ekutya akashandurwa.Anoti akaona kuti kutya hachisi chinhu chekunyara nacho kana kuti "kukundwa," asi manzwiro emunhu akasarudzika anofanira kugamuchirwa.

Asi kunyange Harrington haakundiki - chimwe chinhu chakasimbiswa gore rapfuura paakadonha tsoka makumi matatu panguva yake yechitatu yekuedza kukunda El Capitan, achimuisa muchipatara nemhirizhonga pamwe nekukuvara kwepamuviri. Mupiro mukuru mukudonha kwakashata: Harrington anga anyanya kugadzikana, akanyanya kuzvivimba, anodaro. "Ndakanga ndisina kunzwa kutya," anowedzera. "Ichokwadi chakakonzera kuti ndiongorore danho rangu rekushivirira njodzi uye kuti ndione nguva yekutora nhanho kumashure uye maitiro ekuchinja izvo zvemberi."
