“All the communions of a life-time are one communion.
All the communions of all men now living are one communion.

My little one,
Come with me,
Your life is done.

Forget the past.
Life is over:
Breathe your last.”

“One cannot let the events of one's past murder one's future.”

“And if you were always spending your time getting over your past, how were you supposed to get on with your future?”

“Reality is always the story of a past, and what I love about the past is—it’s over.”
