[00:06.608]And so I come to isolation.
[00:11.539]Etymologically, isolation comes from “insula,” which means island.
[00:17.328]I-so-la-tion, isolation which literally means to be islanded!
[00:21.498]And somebody mentioned this to me the other day –
[00:23.384]actually my Cape Verdean hairdresser –
[00:26.030]because I asked her “how do you say this word in Portuguese?”
[00:28.932]and she said “Isolanda.”
[00:30.737]Like an island!
[00:31.583]Like you're-you're... you're... islanded.
[00:37.433]And I thought – that's exactly what I've been.
[00:39.549]My whole life.
[00:42.666]I've been islanded.
