KAREN:

I GUESS WHAT I'M TELLING YOU IS THAT I'M FINALLY HAPPY. I'VE BEEN REALLY UNHAPPY FOR MOST OF MY LIFE, MY ADULT LIFE. I DOUBT YOU'VE BEEN AWARE OF THAT. I KNOW OUR LIVES HAVE LED US APART, YOU, ME AND IVY, AND MAYBE WE'RE NOT AS CLOSE AS WE...AS SOME FAMILIES -

BARBARA:

YEAH, WE REALLY NEED TO TALK ABOUT MOM, WHAT TO DO ABOUT MOM -

KAREN:

- BUT I THINK AT LEAST ONE REASON FOR THAT IS THAT I HAVEN'T WANTED TO LIVE MY UNHAPPINESS IN FULL VIEW OF MY FAMILY. BUT NOW I'M...WELL, I'M JUST REALLY HAPPY. AND I'D REALLY LIKE US TO MAYBE GET TO KNOW EACH OTHER A LITTLE BETTER.

BARBARA:

YES. YES.

(KAREN WRAPS HER ARMS AROUND BARBARA.)

OKAY. YES.

(THEY SEPARATE.)

- KAREN CONFIDES IN HER OLDER SISTER AFTER THEIR FATHER'S FUNERAL.

"'TIS THUS WHEN THE LOVELY SUMMER SUN

THE TRANSIENT, PASSIONATE DAY-FLOW'R

WITHERING AT THE EV'NING HOUR."

- DANTE BEHOLDS A VISION OF PATIENCE ON THE THIRD CORNICE OF PURGATORY, WHERE THE SIN OF ANGER IS PURGED. PURGATORIO 15, 101-103

ALONG WITH 'THRINOS' FOR SOLO CELLO, UNDOUBTEDLY THE MOST PERFECT PIECES OF MUSIC EVER WRITTEN.

2012-02-26T19:34:00.001Z

- IT WAS ONE OF OUR GREATEST FEARS, TO BE SEPARATED. IT WAS SO IMPOSSIBLE TO IMAGINE, SO UNKNOWN TO US. BUT I THINK IT ENDURED BECAUSE A LARGE PART OF IT WAS ROOTED IN OUR DESIRE TO EACH BE A SINGLE PERSON. I'D EVEN GO SO FAR TO SAY IT WAS A FANTASY.

I PAUSED, AND DRANK SOME WATER.

- I GET ANGRY AT HIM SOMETIMES, FOR DOING WHAT HE DID, THAT SOMEHOW HE GRANTED OUR WISH, BUT I'M ANGRY THAT HE LEFT US, THAT HE LEFT ME. WE WERE STRONGER TOGETHER, AND HE LEFT ME. SO NOW I'M ALONE. BUT I'M FREE, I GUESS. I'M COMPLETELY FREE...

THE DOCTOR DIDN'T MOVE, BUT CONTINUED TO GAZE.

- I'M SORRY. I'M SORRY TOO.

- WHY ARE YOU SORRY?

- BECAUSE I LEFT HIM. IN SOME WAY I GUESS I LEFT HIM TOO, AND HE HAD NO ONE TO TURN TO.

THE DOCTOR DIDN'T MOVE, BUT CONTINUED TO GAZE.

- A FICTIVE CONVERSATION TAKEN FROM A DREAM ABOUT DEATH.

"WAS THIS WHAT IT ALL MEANT - UTTER, INTACT SEPARATENESS, OBSCURED BY HEAT OF LIVING?"

- D.H. LAWRENCE, ODOUR OF CHRYSANTHEMUMS (1909)

"A CAR ENGINE REVVED IN THE DISTANCE BUT THIS PLACE FELT SO FAR REMOVED THAT THE MAIN ROAD MIGHT HAVE LAIN ON THE OTHER SDE OF A PANE OF THICKENED, FROSTED GLASS. HE FOUND THAT HE HAD LEFT ALL THOUGHTS OF FAMILY BEHIND AND...FELT AS THOUGH HE HAD RETURNED TO HIS BODY TO FIND IT MADE NEW AND DOUBLY ALERT. HE FELT HE COULD HAVE SPRUNG UP A TREE WITH THE AGILITY OF A SQUIRREL OR FLITTED THROUGH THE DARKNESS BEYOND WITH THE SILENT ELEGANCE OF A MOTH. THE ENGINE SOUNDED CLOSE AND HE REMEMBERED HE WAS NO LONGER A VIRGIN AND WOULD NEVER BE QUITE AS YOUNG AND NAÏVELY AIMLESS AS HE HAD BEEN THAT AFTERNOON."

- PATRICK GALE, 'NOTES FROM AN EXHIBITION' (2008)

"THE FRAILTY OF EVERYTHING REVEALED AT LAST. OLD AND TROUBLING ISSUES RESOLVED INTO NOTHINGNESS AND NIGHT. THE LAST INSTANCE OF A THING TAKES THE CLASS WITH IT. TURNS OUT THE LIGHT AND IT IS GONE. LOOK AROUND YOU. EVER IS A LONG TIME. BUT THE BOY KNEW WHAT HE KNEW. THAT EVER IS NO TIME AT ALL."

- CORMAC MCCARTHY, 'THE ROAD' (2006)

THAT IT IS EVER DIFFICULT AT FIRST,

BUT MORE A MAN PROCEEDS, LESS EVIL GROWS.

WHEN PLEASANT IT SHALL SEEM TO THEE, SO MUCH

THAT UPWARD GOING SHALL BE EASY TO THEE

AS IN A VESSEL TO GO DOWN THE TIDE,

THEN OF THIS PATH THOU WILT HAVE REACHED THE END.

THERE HOPE TO REST THEE FROM THY TOIL. NO MORE

I ANSWER, AND THUS FAR FOR CERTAIN KNOW."
