Default Just wanted to share.

Excerpt and popular quote from Paul Bowles book "The Sheltering Sky". (1949)

Because we don't know when we will die, we begin to think of life as an inexauhstible well. Yet everything happens a certain number of times. A very small number actually. How many more times will you remember a certain afternoon of your childhood, an afternoon that's so deeply a part of your being that you can't even concieve of your life without it? Perhaps four or five times more. Perhaps not even that. How many more times will you see the full moon rise? Perhaps... twenty.

And yet it all seems limitless.


-This was also engraved on actor Jason Lee's tombstone. Lee was accidentally killed while filming the movie 'The Crow'.
