But most actors spent more time with their masks off than on, whereas in my case it was the reverse. No surprise, then, that sometimes I dreamed of trying to pull a mask off my face, only to realize that the mask was my face."]]> 2016-12-06 13:47:14 UTC https://padlet.com/elizabeth_morris/y0qntrfo5yon/wish/142000267 3062924 https://padlet.com/elizabeth_morris/y0qntrfo5yon/wish/142309213 "The year of my birth, 1940, was the fulcrum of America in the twentieth century, when the nation was balanced precariously between the darkness of the Great Depression on one side and the storms of war in Europe and the Pacific on the other."

Yet it was a secret growth. His new-born cunning gave him poise and control. He was too busy adjusting himself to the new life to feel at ease, and not only did he not pick fights, but he avoided them whenever possible."

"Such a man was like a dreamer who wakes froma dream of grief to greater sorrow yet. All that he loves is now become a torment to him. Such a man is lost to us. He moves and speaks. But he is himself less than the merest shadow among all that he beholds. There is no picture of him possible. The smallest mark upon the page exaggerates his presence."]]> 2016-12-07 15:20:41 UTC https://padlet.com/elizabeth_morris/y0qntrfo5yon/wish/142309892 https://padlet.com/elizabeth_morris/y0qntrfo5yon/wish/142309997 "What a terrible thing it is to wound someone you really care for and to do it so unconsciously.”]]> 2016-12-07 15:21:00 UTC https://padlet.com/elizabeth_morris/y0qntrfo5yon/wish/142309997 https://padlet.com/elizabeth_morris/y0qntrfo5yon/wish/142310051 "The word alone -extinction- frightens and intimidates us.

From the mouths of Alzheimer's patients, I think, trying to make light. I walk a loop around the neighborhood, waiting for Nick to appear, to guide me back to our house. The rain spackles me gently, dampening me. I really believe Nick will come after me. I turn toward the house and see only a closed door."

The stubborn retention of it, even in the face of extreme physical hardship, can hold a man’s soul in his body long past the point at which the body should have surrendered it. The loss of it can carry a man off as surely as thirst, hunger, exposure, and asphyxiation, and with greater cruelty."
