You're different. You're more perfect. Time is three things for most people, but for you, for us, just one. A singularity. One moment. This moment. Like you're the center of the clock, the axis on which the hands turn. Time moves about you but never moves you. It has lost its ability to affect you. What is it they say? That time is theft? But not for you. Close your eyes and you can start all over again. Conjure up that necessary emotion, fresh as roses. Jonathan Nolan

Close your eyes and you can start all over again. Conjure up that necessary emotion, fresh as roses." means that if an individual is able to look back on a particular moment in time and get a new perspective on it, they get a new chance at happiness or success or anything else that was once frustrating or difficult to obtain in life can be achieved again just by looking at it from a different angle.
