Kindle Notes & Highlights
You should leave off sniffing the carcass of your old life, my brother. You may enjoy unending pain. I do not. There is no shame in walking away from bones, Changer.
Leave old pains alone. When they cease coming to call, do not invite them back.”
“Death is always less painful and easier than life! You speak true. And yet we do not, day to day, choose death. Because ultimately, death is not the opposite of life, but the opposite of choice. Death is what you get when there are no choices left to make.
So grief has always seemed to me, a time of waiting not for the hurt to pass, but to become accustomed to it.
