Every choice is a loss. The past is not where you left it.
Ruth PadelI missed my mother and Elysius. It wasn't that I wanted them with me at that very moment. I wanted them in the past. I wanted to have back just one sunny afternoon together.
Bridget AsherI wanted the past to go away, I wanted
to leave it, like another country; I wanted
my life to close, and open
like a hinge, like a wing, like the part of the song
where it falls
down over the rocks: an explosion, a discovery;
I wanted
to hurry into the work of my life; I wanted to know,
whoever I was, I was
alive
for a little while.
Stichwörter: life past poetry change living

He noticed that she threw away the crumbled bus ticket on the street as soon as she got down.

K.C. KingWhat was I supposed to do then I wondered. Was there even a supposed-to for this kind of situation? A situation when when I looked at my receding past everything seemed retrospectively marked by an extreme order and predictability yet all moments since seemed to obey, and promised to continue obeying, their own set of stochastic, undisclosed, and undiscoverable laws. Where I was fully aware of the pitfalls and folly of a finely-tuned narcissism but still the known universe seemed to bend and bend inexorably inward and towards me where it awaited my next move, supremely ready to react accordingly. And how I knew that decisions I would soon make or defer would have near-Sophoclean import and yet nonetheless it all seemed oddly irrelevant.
Sergio de la PavaStichwörter: life past future decision-making uncertainly retrospective
How many stars can you count in the sky? How many mistakes can you count in your life? Stop counting! No clever man ever is stuck in the past!
Mehmet Murat ildanStichwörter: past
Witness also that when we talk about literature, we do so in the present tense. When we speak of the dead, we are not so kind.

Memories are dangerous things. You turn them over and over, until you know every touch and corner, but still you'll find an edge to cut you.
