“People always say not to forget because then history will repeat itself. But maybe history will repeat itself anyway, and forgetting is how we bear it.”
Sarah Damoff, The Bright Years

“There are two kinds of grief at a wake: grieving the loss of what was and grieving the loss of what wasn’t.”
Sarah Damoff, The Bright Years

“Everyone says gone but not forgotten, but it's ultimately the other way around. Generations later, a mother is forgotten but not gone- a pulse in the bodies born from her love”
Sarah Damoff, The Bright Years
