“And once you live a good story, you get a taste for a kind of meaning in life, and you can't go back to being normal; you can't go back to meaningless scenes stitched together by the forgettable thread of wasted time.”
“Once we've tasted being alive, we can't go back to being dead. Aliveness in God is addictive.”
“You can't go back to something once it's dead.”
“You can't go back; I can't go back either, but we can go on.”
“...the dark ancestral cave, the womb from which mankind emerged into the light, forever pulls one back - but...you can't go home again...you can't go...back home to the escapes of Time and Memory. You Can't Go Home Again”
“Once you taste a little of the sweetness that life can be, there really is no going back.”
