“We were together. I forget the rest.”

“Books were only one type of receptacle where we stored a lot of things we were afraid we might forget. There is nothing magical in them at all. The magic is only in what books say, how they stitched the patches of the Universe together into one garment for us.”

“We dreamed together, we planned a life together. We were so young, but we were so sure.”

“We are going to hell together. But we're coming back alive. Don't forget that.”

“There lies before us, if we choose, continual progress in happiness, knowledge and wisdom. Shall we instead choose death, because we cannot forget our quarrels? I appeal as a human being to human beings; remember your humanity, and forget the rest.”

“Forget us, forget us all, it makes no difference now, but don't forget we loved it when we were alive.”
