“It’s never the changes we want that change everything.” 

“People took what they wanted, they clutched at coincidences, the few there were, and made a life from them… . Choices are made in brief seconds and paid for in the time that remains.”

And with a gentle hand
Lay it where Childhood’s dreams are twined
In Memory’s mystic band,
Like pilgrim’s withered wreath of flowers
Plucked in a far-off land.
