“Because we do not know when we will die, we get to think of life as an inexhaustible well. And yet everything happens only a certain number of times, and a very small number really. How many more times will you remember a certain afternoon of your childhood, an afternoon that is so deeply a part of your being that you cannot conceive of your life without it? Perhaps four, or five times more? Perhaps not even that. How many more times will you watch the full moon rise? Perhaps twenty. And yet it all seems limitless...”

“რადგან არ ვიცით, როდის წავალთ ამქვეყნიდან, გვეჩვენება, რომ ცხოვრება ამოუწურავი ჭაა, თუმცა, ყველაფერი მხოლოდ რამოდენიმეჯერ შეიძლება მოხდეს. ისე მცირედ, რომ თითზე თუ ჩამოთვლი. რამდენჯერ შეგიძლია გაიხსენო რომელიმე დღე ბავშვობიდან? ის დღე, რომელიც შენი არსებობის განუყოფელი ნაწილია, რომლის გარეშე ცხოვრება არც კი წარმოგიდგენია? ალბათ ოთხ ან ხუთჯერ, შესაძლოა, კიდევ უფრო ნაკლებად. კიდევ რამდენჯერ შეძლებთ ნახოთ მთვარის სავსეობა? შეიძლება ოცჯერ. და მაინც, ეს ყველაფერი გეჩვენებათ მარადიულად.”
