I had a feeling once about Mathematics - that I saw it all. Depth beyond depth was revealed to me - the Byss and Abyss. I saw - as one might see the transit of Venus or even the Lord Mayor's Show - a quantity passing through infinity and changing its sign from plus to minus. I saw exactly why it happened and why the tergiversation was inevitable but it was after dinner and I let it go. Winston Churchill

She was frightened because she was realizing? too late, too late? that what's done can't be undone, and what's remembered must somehow be lived with ever after. Even of the memories are insane. Stephen King
This is a story about a family and, as there is a ghost involved, you might cal it a ghost story. But every family is a ghost story. The dead sit at out tables long after they have gone. Mitch Albom
Nothing seems worthwhile. My very thoughts are old. I've thought them all before. What is the use of living after all, Anne? L. M. Montgomery
The shock of her death froze something in me. The child I loved, was gone, but I kept looking for her - long after I had left my own childhood behind. The poison was in the wound, you see. And the wound wouldn't heal. Vladimir Nabokov
Like a snake creeping through the undergrowth, I sneak into the law school well past noon and hours after both of my scheduled classes have broken up. John Grisham
Truman Capote quote: "There's the one and only T.C. There was nobody like me before,..."
There's the one and only T.C. There was nobody like me before, and there ain't gonna be anybody like me after I'm gone... Truman Capote
Stephenie Meyer quote: "Edward: “After a few decades, everyone you know will be dead...."
Edward: “After a few decades, everyone you know will be dead. Problem solved. Stephenie Meyer
But tomorrow I'll be a different person, never again the person I was. Not that anyone will notice after I'm back in Japan. On the outside nothing will be different.
