“A relationship is like a holiday from loneliness, beginning and ending in the same airport. The most awful thing about the end is that it reminds you so clearly of the beginning with the joy with which you set off. Everything is the same, yet everything has been inverted by grief.”
“There will come a time when you believe everything is finished; that will be the beginning. ”
“We do not often get to declare victories, Natch, and most of them do not remain victories for very long. Ultimately when you reach my age you realize that victories are temporary, and in all the years of human history there is one final battle which nobody has ever won.Time has a way of changing the terms of your victories over the years, until you begin to wonder precisely what it was you fought for so viciously, so uncompromisingly. You begin to see that victory and defeat are but alternate reflections from the same prism.You see that the measure of a person really might be the integrity with which he fought his battles and not their ultimate dispensation, just like your elders have been telling you all along.”
“Everything which has a beginning has an End.”
“For everything in life there is always a beginning and an end. This is the tough part the most difficult thing when you see that it’s coming: The end.”
“Everything that has a beginning has an End.”
“No matter the deviation, all things come full circle. You begin and end your journey in the same place, but with a different set of eyes. - Abram”
