• Time hath a wallet at his back, wherein he puts. Alms for oblivion, a great-sized monster of ingratitudes. (William Shakespeare) [time/oblivion]

• I'm not sure whether Los Angeles borders on the ocean or on oblivion. I always feel that I'm two steps away from the other side when I'm out there. It's more like a vacation place or a place to visit than a place to hunker down. (Jeffrey Wright) [borders/oblivion/more/vacation]
