“This is time for us. Memory. A nostalgia. The pain of absence. But it isn't absence that causes sorrow. It is affection and love. Without affection, without love, such absences would cause us no pain.

― Carlo Rovelli, L'ordine del tempo

“It felt like the world had divided into two different types of people, those who had felt pain and those who had yet to.”
