Echoes Quotes

“I know grief,” he said softly. “I know that you need to acknowledge it, not fight it. That hole in your gut, that tightening in your chest, you need to just feel it—every time it hurts, you just need to acknowledge its presence and let yourself be in pain, because hurting right now is normal. Trying to fight that hurt—trying not to cry—that’s not normal, and that will make the pain last so much longer.”

“The echoes of our past are the hands that shape our future, ringing out with endless percussion, but returning to us only in silence. No one man can know the road he must take, nor can he know where each choice will lead him. Our end is not determined by knowledge of things to come. It is determined simply by the will to either fight with the fire that burns inside of us, or to sit comfortably by and watch the embers of fear simmer into ashes of regret.”
