“It’ll be your loss, Ethan. Day’ll come, when he’s grown and it’s too late, that you’d give a kingdom to go back and spend a single hour with your son as a boy. To hold him. Read a book to him.

― Blake Crouch, Pines

“You are not the only one with sorrows in this world. Don't hoard them like they are precious. There is always plenty of them to go around.”
