“Time is so fast that all times are past times! When you look at a photo of the past, you must know that you are already in the album, someone else is looking at your photo! All times are past times!”

“When you look like your passport photo, it's time to go home.”

“That's because they're of the past. All photos of the past look melancholy and wistful precisely because they capture something that's gone.”

“Time folds you in its arms and gives you one last kiss, and then it flattens you out and folds you up and tucks you away until it's time for you to become someone else's past time, and then time folds again.”

“The jackal with one eye that looks back and one that regards the path you consider taking. In his jaws are pieces of the past he delivers to you, and when all of that time is fully discovered it will prove to have been already known.”

“The past always seems better when you look back on it than it did at the time. And the present never looks as good as it will in the future.”
