Time — how it expands to fill the spaces you create; how it makes meagre experiences seem never-ending. Whenever he heard people talk about the ravages of time, about how it robbed and deprived, Justin always smiled; because for him, time was an accomplice, plugging the gaps and fleshing out morsels of memory so he would have something substantial to hang on to. That way, however little he had seen or felt, he would always feel as if he had more: a life far richer than the truth.

Everything either is, was or will be. Time doesn't really exist. It's just something we have made up that makes it easier for us to grasp the universe.

Life is too short. So why waste... Precious Time.
Pat BenetarEl que hoy es un impetuoso joven se quedaría horrorizado si contemplara
el retrato de lo que será en su vejez. Llevaos con vosotros todos los
impulsos humanos cuando salgáis de los fáciles años de la juventud
para entrar en la severa virilidad que todo lo endurece, lleváoslo, no los
abandonéis en el camino. ¡Después no os será posible recuperarlos! ¡La
vejez que os aguarda, horrible y temible, jamás devuelve nada!
Más compasiva que la vejez es la sepultura, en ella se escribirá: «Aquí han enterrado a un hombre»,
pero nada se puede leer en los insensibles y fríos rasgos de la inhumana vejez.
That if a thing is defined in contrast that's what life is, the shadow of death. So the mystery of death couldn't be the bad thing, because without it there wouldn't be life. The badness was life, just happening, as essential a part of the good as the good. And what was there to do but to take it as it comes and to hope, to hope constantly and carnally and with no time to lose.

Nightmares don't last.

The water can't turn back and choose another bed, just as promises now cannot be kept. No drowned man comes up again asking for a towel, no love is found again, no tobacconist fails to be born in the first place, no bullet shoots out of a neck and back into the gun, the dam will hold or will not hold.
