play burning literature
Let's say there was a burning building and you could rush in and you could save only one thing: either the last known copy of Shakespeare's plays or some anonymous human being. What would you do?
couple getting-older littles

You do gain a couple of things-you gain a little bittersweet and sour wisdom from your heartbreaks and failures and things-but what you lose is so catastrophic in every way.
heart littles resilient

littles boring eternity
Existence for eternity could get a little boring... especially towards the end.
arrogance greatness standing
I've often said, the only thing standing between me and greatness is me
