I can't stop it from breaking in the same way it always does, and then from lying there broken; always the same day, which comes around again like clockwork.

Bob LepineNothing ever begins. There is no first moment; no single word or place from which this or any story springs.

The West must pay closer attention.

Ronald ReaganPhilip Glass, like [Virginia] Woolf, is more interested in that which continues than he is in that which begins, climaxes, and ends... Glass and Woolf have both broken out of the traditional realm of the story, whether literary or musical, in favor of something more meditative, less neatly delineated, and more true to life. For me, Glass [finds] in three repeated notes something of [a] rapture of sameness.

We'd have an opportunity.
