"Because we don’t know when we will die, we get to think of life as an inexhaustible well, yet everything happens only a certain number of times. How many more times will you remember a certain afternoon of your childhood, some afternoon that’s so deeply a part of your life that you can’t even conceive of your life without it? Perhaps four or five, perhaps not even that. How many more times will you watch the full moon rise? Perhaps twenty. And yet it all seems so limitless."
- Paul Bowles, American author & composer (1910-1999)
