"Days to come stand in front of us like a row of lighted candlesâ€” golden, warm, and vivid candles. Days gone by fall behind us, a gloomy line of snuffed-out candles; the nearest are smoking still, cold, melted, and bent. I donâ€™t want to look at them: their shape saddens me, and it saddens me to remember their original light. I look ahead at my lighted candles. I donâ€™t want to turn for fear of seeing, terrified, how quickly that dark line gets longer, how quickly the snuffed-out candles proliferate."

-- C.P. Cavafy
