Epigraph
Preface
1. "We must learn to die."
2. "No constellation is as steadfast . . . as a connection between human beings."
3. "The weight of this unexplained . . . event . . . presses us . . . more evenly and more deeply into life."
4. "Make it the task of your mourning to explore what he had expected of you, had hoped for you, had wished to happen to you."
5. "I tend to think of physical pain as . . . utterly senseless."
6. "Transience is not separation."
7. "An initiation into one's own life."
8. "Such a great weight . . . has the task of forcing us into a deeper, more intimate layer of life so that we may grow out of it all the more vibrant and fertile."
9. "Where things become truly difficult and unbearable, we find ourselves in a place already very close to its transformation."
10. "Our grief's peculiar prerogative . . . to be . . . the purest, most consummate coming to our senses."
11. "We rest in the pause between two of God's breaths: for that means: to be in time."
12. "But our knowledge of death is enriched . . ."
13. "This unified oneness of her heart . . . this joyful, heartfelt . . . way of belonging with the here and now."
14. "A relentless way of making us . . . intimate with the side of our existence that is turned away from us."
15. "How he proved daily his just and pure endurance and ultimate courage."
16. "This identity of absence and presence that perhaps forms the fundamental equation of our life."
17. "Time itself does not 'console.' "
18. "We gain a hint of the greatest bliss that is ours at this price."
19. "The solitude into which you were cast . . . makes you capable of balancing out the loneliness of others."
20. "For people . . . permanently caught in sorrow . . . there is only one liberation."
21. "Destiny's vagaries pass to us in more ways than only via what is real or visible."
22. "Life is already so rich on its own that it surpasses all of our means and all of our measures."
23. "We are the transformers of the earth."
