Hirokawa Obituary Quotes & Sayings

It's no good trying to get rid of your own aloneness. You've got to stick to it all your life. Only at times, at times, the gap will be filled in. At times! But you have to wait for the times.

It means, always, allowing for the hard truth of endings. It means, too, keeping faith in beginnings. — Katrina Kenison
