Quotes From "The Year Of The Rat" By Clare Furniss

1
For now the world keeps turning and I keep breathing, in and out, in and out. I breathe in the life that is all around me, in this garden, in this city, in the fields beyond it, in the seas beyond them and the shores on the other side; life that reaches out towards the unreachable, unknowable space that is beyond all of us and the stars that burn there. Clare Furniss

You shouldn't be wasting your time worrying about what's going to happen after you die. It's pointless. Think about what's happening now. In your life. That's what's important. So change the subject, will you? Clare Furniss

The world may tip at any moment. But for now that doesn't matter. . Clare Furniss
