And yet, in our particular society, it is the narrowed and narrowing view of life that often wins."

"And I don't believe you dead. How can you be dead if I still feel you? Maybe, like God, you changed into something different that I'll have to speak to in a different way, but you not dead to me Nettie. And never will you be."
