Timebends: A Life QUOTES

1 " It was in my twenties that I felt old, that was when time was an abrasive wheel grinding me down. But it was not so much death I feared as insignificance. "

― Arthur Miller , Timebends: A Life

2 " And I am in this room from which I can sometimes look out at dusk and see them [coyotes] warily moving through the barren winter trees, and I am, I suppose, doing what they are doing, making myself possible and those who come after me. At such moments I do not know whose land this is that I own, or whose bed I sleep in. In the darkness out there they see my light and pause, muzzles lifted, wondering who I am and what I am doing here in this cabin under my light. I am a mystery to them until they tire of it and move on, but the truth, the first truth, probably, is that we are all connected, watching one another. Even the trees. "

― Arthur Miller , Timebends: A Life
