“Often, on the brink of finding the recipe for immortality, I get distracted by the frightful presence of death.”
“But I was frightfully fond of the universe and wanted to address it by a diminutive. I often did so; and it never seemed to mind.”
“I laughed uneasily. “Jeez, you guys make it sound like I was on the brink of death or something. I just fainted.” (Sabina)”
“But thy strong Hours indignant work’d their wills,And beat me down and marr’d and wasted me,And tho’ they could not end me, left me maim’dTo dwell in presence of immortal youth,Immortal age beside immortal youth,And all I was, in ashes. - Tithonus”
“People are afraid of immortality because they believe they won’t find something to do and will get bored! What to do if we become immortal? We can just walk! It is better than dying!”
“That was the recipe of our relationship, I think. We gave each other what we never expected to find.”
