'Remembered, time.' 
'As viewed from an oblique angle - arches and light - all the world I see.' 
'A window, somewhere else; bright and wavey glass, reflecting another sky.' 
'There is no deliverance. There is no paradise to be. But oh, you ring the Springtime beauty in my ears...'
'Someone's idea of mirth - a torn awning, some broken letters in the midday sun.'
'I sensed the recognition. I had been past here before - some older day, another era. Everything seemed lifeless now, and tired and gone.'
'Whatever it had been that was said, it all went beyond mere meaning. Insisting on something, others simply swore they'd heard this or heard that - even though much of what was said bore no realtionship to that which had been heard...'
'Ah! O Henry Place it was too - I can still hear the scratching of the pen to the paper.'
