What an absolutely brilliant and life changing monologue to read.
“No person ever died that had a family.”

“Now, chalk in hand, she stood back from life a silent hour before reaching for the eraser.”

“There’s the day I found I was alive… and why isn’t it brighter than the others?”

“Yesterday a whole lot of dust settled for good. And I didn’t even appreciate it at the time.”

“It doesn’t matter if being so alive kills a man.”

“War’s never a winning thing… You just lose all the time, and the one who loses last asks for terms.”

"Old men only lie in wait for people to ask them to talk. Then they rattle on like a rusty elevator wheezing up a shaft."

Soul shattering depression. What the fuck man.

"Once a time was over, it was done. You were always in the present. She may have been a girl once, but was not now. Her childhood was gone and nothing could fetch it back."

"They can't imagine a change they can't see."
