Quote by Patricia Gaffney

“I knew those were precious times, Mama. I knew they were going by too fast, everybody knows that. Where I went wrong is, I thought that would protect me, the fact that I knew. Knew and appreciated, felt for a minute, and now… I don’t know, something’s going on with time, it’s not passing the way it used to, and I hate it. Because you know it all comes down to is good-bye.”

“Some mountains will test your endurance. They will remind you of your place in this vast universe. These are mountains that come even when you are least prepared. Embrace them, and let them teach you persistence!”
