“This--this was what came after. Living. She would carry the dead with her, but now she wouldn't be burdened by them. They were a weight that would lessen with every step; not because the memories would fade, but because she'd be stronger for bearing them. And perhaps this was the truth about the dead. You went on. They'd want you to.”

“Every step is a step away from the asylum, away from Warner, away from the futility of the existence I've always known. Every step is one I take because I want to.

“LIFE is in living. It is not a thing, it is a process. There is no way to attain to life except by living it, except by being alive, by flowing, streaming with it. If you are seeking the meaning of life in some dogma, in some philosophy, that Is the sure way to miss life and meaning both. Life is not somewhere waiting for you, it is happening in you. It is not in the future as a goal to be arrived at, it is herenow, this very moment - in your breathing, circulating in your blood, beating in your heart. Whatsoever you are is your life, and if you start seeking meaning somewhere else, you will miss it.”
