The Swing of Things
"What were people looking for? They all knew that this was the eye of the needle, that nothing lasted, the silence will win. The animal drive to survive and the human reason knowing it is futile - was that it? People knew it was pointless and dwelling on it changed nothing...The great stale void sucked everything into it whether you were aware of it or not. You could laugh or put a gun in your mouth. Or in somebody else's mouth. Or you could go to work, marry the woman, bring up the kids and keep it out of your mind."
