Printable Vintage Garden Illustration: A Delightful Summer Walk

One lives in the hope of becoming a memory.
― Antonio Porchia

When we think of the past it's the beautiful things we pick out.
We want to believe it was all like that.
― Margaret Atwood, The Handmaid’s Tale

That's how you get deathless, volchitsa.
Walk the same tale over and over, until you wear a groove in the world,
until even if you vanished, the tale would keep turning, keep playing, like a phonograph,
and you'd have to get up again,
even with a bullet through your eye, to play your part and say your lines.
― Catherynne M. Valente, Deathless
