John Irving, _The Cider House Rules_ (1985) quotes
"What is hardest to accept about the passage of time is that the people who once mattered the most to us are wrapped up in parentheses."
Courage is not afraid to weep, and she is not afraid to pray, even when she is not sure who she is praying to.
How smooth must be the language of the whites, when they can make right look like wrong, and wrong like right.
"What is hardest to accept about the passage of time is that the people who once mattered the most to us are wrapped up in parentheses."
