“We don't know how we will grieve until we grieve.”
― Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie, Notes on Grief

“I was always conscious of sounds in nature which my ears could never hear,—that I caught but the prelude to a strain. She always retreats as I advance. Away behind and behind is she and her meaning. Will not this faith and expectation make to itself ears at length?”
― Henry David Thoreau, The Journal, 1837-1861

“In this life that sometimes seems to be a vast, ill-defined landscape without signposts, amid all of the vanishing lines and the lost horizons, we hope to find reference points, to draw up some sort of land registry so as to shake the impression that we are navigating by chance. So we forge ties, we try to find stability in chance encounters.”
― Patrick Modiano, Dans le café de la jeunesse perdue

“Forget the suffering
You caused others.
Forget the suffering
Others caused you.
The waters run and run,
Springs sparkle and are done,
You walk the earth you are forgetting.”
― Czeslaw Milosz
