so it goes

“We learned in the past, but we are not a result of that. We suffered in the past, loved in the past, cried and laughed in the past, but that’s of no use to the present. The present has its challenges, its good and bad side. We can neither blame nor be grateful to the past for what is happening now. Each new experience of love has nothing whatsoever to do with past experiences. It’s always new.” — Aleph, Paulo Coelho

"That’s what they mean by the womb of time: the agnoy and the despair of spreading bones, hard girdle in which lie the outraged entrails of events."

—  As I Lay Dying, William Faulkner
