"Love does not last forever, then?'He asked me the same thing this morning,' she said. 'No, it does not - not love that has been betrayed.

"I know that my grandmother certainly did nothing to warrant my mother stealing all of her jewelry that my grandfather had given her as gifts over the years, just so she could peddle it for heroin on the street.

"Nobody sees anybody truly but all through the flaws of their own egos."
Perception


"The scene is memory and is therefore nonrealistic. Memory takes a lot of poetic license. It omits some details; others are exaggerated, according to the emotional value of the articles it touches, for memory is seated predominantly in the heart."
Memory


"Has it ever struck you that life is all memory, except for the one present moment that goes by you so quick you hardly catch it going?"
Memory


"To begin with, I turn back time. I reverse it to that quaint period, the thirties, when the huge middle class of America was matriculating in a school for the blind.

Literature


"A drinking man's someone who wants to forget he isn't still young and believing."
Reflection
