“I sat there for perhaps an hour or two trying to decipher the reason for my tears--was it the fact that I had my plans thwarted? That I didn't get to see Father Arthur? The fact that Jacky didn't care that I am dying? Or the fact that I'm dying? Or, perhaps, I realized, I was crying because I live in a place where dying doesn't make you special.” — Marianne Cronin
