“It's not the years in the life, its the life in the years”
“And in the end, its not the years in your life that count. It's the life in your years.”
“As we move on year by year in this life, we learn that telling doesn't necessarily purge; telling something is merely a reliving, and it's a torment.”
“...an animal, at the end of a few months, is what it will be all its life; and its species, at the end of a thousand years, is what it was in the first of those thousand years. Why is man alone subject to becoming an imbecile?”
“It's crap that you're letting on bad year determine your fate for the rest of your life.”
“But do you want this? It's not much of a life. Don't you see? It's the first life I've had in four hundred years. With you--in the only way that matters--I'm alive again.”
