'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,
and a very small number, really. How
many more times will you remember
a certain afternoon of your childhood, some
afternoon that's so deeply a part of your being that
you can't even conceive of IJOl.Jr life without it?
Perhaps four or five times more, perhaps not even
that. How many more times will you watch the full
moon rise? Perhaps twenty. And yet it all seems
limitless."
