“Give me the waters of Lethe that numb the heart, if they exist, I will still not have the power to forget you.”

“While his heart still beats, while his flesh still moves, I cannot accept that a being endowed with will-power can give in to despair.”

“Maybe forgetfulness, like a kind snow, should numb and cover them. But they were a part of me. They were my landscape.”

“Take a leap of faith and see that these troubled waters have no power over you unless you give it to them, and even then they lie.”

“Heart, we will forget him!
You and I, to-night!
You may forget the warmth he gave,
I will forget the light.

When you have done, pray tell me,
That I my thoughts may dim;
Haste! lest while you're lagging,
I may remember him!”

“What could you give me," I ask, my voice shaking, "to make me forget… that you forgot about me?”

“Heart, we will forget him,

You and I, tonight!

You must forget the warmth he gave,

I will forget the light.”

“If you give me wings
I will soar for you

Even if this whole land
Sinks down to the water

If you give me a sword
I will fight for you

Even if this whole sky
Shoots through with your light”

“Not the power to remember, but its very opposite, the power to forget, is a necessary condition for our existence.”

“Without clouds we wouldn't have rain. Without rain there is no water, no crops and no food for you and me. Humans would not exist without the sun, heat, water and oxygen from plants.”
