“Even while you paid attention to what you must do today and tomorrow, you heard the receding sound of what you had relinquished.”
Wallace Stegner, Angle of Repose

“We must be reconciled, for what we left behind us can never be ours again.”
Wallace Stegner, Angle of Repose

“It is strange to find ourselves people of consequence.”
Wallace Stegner, Angle of Repose

Wallace Stegner
“I would like to hear your life as you heard it, coming at you, instead of hearing it as I do, a sober sound of expectations reduced, desires blunted, hopes deferred or abandoned, chances lost, defeats accepted, griefs borne. I don't find your life uninteresting, as Rodman does. I would like to hear it as it sounded while it was passing. Having no future of my own, why shouldn't I look forward to yours.”
Wallace Stegner, Angle of Repose
