“A veces basta con una mirada o un silencio compartido. Puede que lo único que necesitemos sea aprender a dejar de perder el tiempo ya no sentirnos culpables. ¿Por qué en ocasiones cuesta tanto coger la felicidad cuando la tienes al alcance de tu mano? ¿Por qué damos vueltas, buscamos recovecos, atajos o bifurcaciones si la respuesta la tenemos delante de nuestras narices? ¿Acaso nos da tanto miedo fracasar que nos rendimos incluso antes de ir a por aquello que tanto deseamos? ¿Somos tan irónicamente previsibles?.”

“She philosophically noted dates as they came past in the revolution of the year. Her own birthday, and every other day individualized by incidents in which she had taken some share. She suddenly thought, one afternoon, that there was another date, of greater importance than all those; that of her own death; a day which lay sly and unseen among all the other days of the year, giving no sign or sound when she annually passed over it; but not the less surely there. When was it?”
