“…the phenomenon of restlessness as the day comes to its end is called ‘sundowning’ and is familiar to those who live with or care for someone who has dementia. I think it is an atavistic behaviour; birds do it… and you can hear it from a field of sheep too, the crescendo bleating of lambs and ewes in the gathering dusk pg302”

“In his moments of lucidity, which would later become increasingly rare and painful, he suggested an explanation of what was happening to him: “I am a guilty man. That is why I am being punished like Abuya's heretical sons, I gazed when I should not have gazed and turned my eyes away when I should not have. I saw a sin committed… a crime…I could have, I should have, done something, called out, shouted, struck a blow. I forgot our precepts, our laws, that require an individual to struggle against evil wherever it appears. I forgot that we can never simply remain spectators, we have no right to stand aside, to keep silent, to let the victim fight the aggressor alone. I forgot so many things that day…That is why I am forgetting other things now. Can there be anything worse than that?”
Yes, there was worse, there is worse: to forget that one has forgotten.”
