“I think one person can hardly understand why another has conducted his life in such a way, how he came to commit certain actions and not others, whether he looks upon the past with mostly pleasure or equanimity or regret. It seems difficult enough to consider one’s own triumphs and failures with perfect verity, for it’s no secret that the past proves a most unstable mirror, typically too sever and flattering all at once, and never as truth-reflecting as people would like to believe.”
— Chang-Rae Lee, A Gesture Life (via walrusbob)
