“He thought about whether he had ever understood or accepted the weakness of his feelings, instead of containing them as dangerous out-of-control calamities waiting to uncoil themselves, snakes in a box with its latch broken. He had seen men withered and besot in a drunken, shrunken state in the aftermath of what they called love.”

“our finite time in life does not allow us to really go back. The biographies and autobiographies, based on the exploration and interpretation of the notes we have saved and the markings shaken loose from the corners where we have tucked them, most often stay unwritten. Thus, the memories and mementos become encumbrances, if not for us, then for the family, friends, and strangers who must clean up afterward. Instead of them being loving presences with fragrances that grace a room, they become pale pieces of paper with words that no longer echo and move mountains and souls. A pity, she thought. But there was still much to see in this life, and that was good. She would accept that and move on.”
