"Wonder. Go on and wonder."
"Clocks slay time... time is dead as long as it is being clicked off by little wheels; only when the clock stops does time come to life."
"A man is the sum of his misfortunes. One day you'd think misfortune would get tired but then time is your misfortune"
"I suppose that people, using themselves and each other so much by words, are at least consistent in attributing wisdom to a still tongue..."
"When I was little there was a picture in one of our books, a dark place into which a single weak ray of light came slanting upon two faces lifted out of the shadow."
"...I give you the mausoleum of all hope and desire...I give it to you not that you may remember time, but that you might forget it now and then for a moment and not spend all of your breath trying to conquer it. Because no battle is ever won he said. They are not even fought. The field only reveals to man his own folly and despair, and victory is an illusion of philosophers and fools."
