trying desperately to stop myself thinking exams don’t matter, and to stop dwelling on things which should have been so much more important. exam in 2 and a half hours, this is certainly not an ideal disposition

“Well, from the moment I met you, your personality had the most extraordinary influence over me. I quite admit that I adored you madly, extravagantly, absurdly. I was jealous of every one to whom you spoke. I wanted to have you all to myself. I was only happy when I was with you. When I was away from you, you were still present in my art. It was all wrong and foolish. It is all wrong and foolish still. Of course I never let you know anything about this. It would have been impossible. You would not have understood it; I did not understand it myself. One day I determined to paint a wonderful portrait of you. It was to have been my masterpiece. It is my masterpiece. But, as I worked at it, every flake and film of colour seemed to me to reveal my secret. There was love in every line, and in every touch there was passion.”

“the deserted auditorium was a haunting frame for its rainy landscapes of the old disney. giants strode across the screen, lit by sunlight captured through a lens when your grandather’s grandfather, archivist, was kicing inside his mother’s womb.
time is what stops history happening at once; time is the speed at which the past disappears. film gives those lost worlds a brief ressurection. those since-fallen buildings, those long-decayed faces, they engrossed me. we were as you are, they said. the present doesn’t matter.””

- (an orison of sonmi~451) cloud atlas, david mitchell.
sonmi~451 tells the archivist what it was like to watch ‘the ghastly ordeal of timothy cavendish’ in an old auditorium, centuries after it had been made
