    EPIGRAPH: The charm, one might say the genius of memory, is that it is choosy, chancy, and temperamental: it rejects the edifying cathedral and inedibly photographs the small boy outside, chewing a hunk of melon in the dust.

    EPIGRAPH: What is passion? It is surely the becoming of a person…In passion, the body and the spirit seek expression…The more extreme and the more expressed that passion is, the more unbearable does life seem without it. It reminds us that if passion dies or is denied, we are partly dead and that soon, come what may, we will be wholly so.
