“When the life is monotonous , even grief is a welcome event...”
“Even a minor event in the life of a child is an event of that child's world and thus a world event”
“The most hateful grief of all human griefs is this, to have knowledge of the truth but no power over the event.”
“All strange and terrible events are welcome, but comforts we despise”
“Grief embraced him and welcomed him back, showering tears upon his arrival.”
“Times slows when your life is in danger. Every second takes a minute to pass, and even the smallest event gets chiseled into memory. (95)”
