"This book is a journal of certain experiences, not written in the experiencing moment, but rebuilt out of memory. As we age, the mystery of Time more and more dominates the mind. We live less in the present, which no longer has the solidarity that it had in youth; less in the future, for the future every day narrows its span. The abiding things lie in the past,"
