I am not there. I did not die.

Do not stand at my grave and weep;
I am not there. I do not sleep.
I am a thousand winds that blow.
I am the diamond glints on snow.
I am the sunlight on ripened grain.
I am the gentle autumn rain.
When you awaken in the morning's hush
I am the swift uplifting rush
Of quiet birds in circled flight.
I am the soft stars that shine at night.
Do not stand at my grave and cry;
I am not there. I did not die.

Mary Elizabeth Frye

Extract from "Little House on the Prairie"

LAURA INGALLS: It's not me I'm worried about. I just don't know what I'd do if anything happened to you or ma.

CHARLES INGALLS: Anyway, nothing's gonna happen to us. Not today, anyway. It's the way you live this life, each day, one at a time. Now if you spend your whole life worrying about something that's gonna happen, before you know it, your life's over and you spent an awful lot of it just worrying. [children laughing]

CHARLES INGALLS: Hey, you hear that? That's what life's all about, laughing and loving each other, and knowing that people aren't really gone when they die. We have all the good memories to sustain us until we see 'em again.

LAURA INGALLS: It's hard not being afraid, pa.

CHARLES INGALLS: I know sweetheart, I know.

Song by Cafe Tacuba "Aunque no sea conmigo"

And in that day her whole life...


Quotes about the essence of the movie:

A woman's whole life in a single day. Just one day. And in that day her whole life.

It's on this day. This day of all days. Her fate becomes clear to her.

Someone has to die in order that the rest of us should value life more. It's contrast.


Clarissa Vaughan Quotes:

I remember one morning getting up at dawn, there was such a sense of possibility. You know, that feeling? And I remember thinking to myself: So, this is the beginning of happiness. This is where it starts. And of course there will always be more. It never occurred to me it wasn't the beginning. It was happiness. It was the moment. Right then.

That is what we do. That is what people do. They stay alive for each other.


Laura Brown Quotes:

It would be wonderful to say you regretted it. It would be easy. But what does it mean? What does it mean to regret when you have no choice? It's what you can bear. There it is. No one's going to forgive me. It was death. I chose life.

Obviously, you... feel unworthy. Gives you feelings of unworthiness. You survive and they don't.


Richard Brown Quotes:

I've stayed alive for you. But now you have to let me go.

Just wait till I die. Then you'll have to think of yourself. How are you going to like that?

I'm not trying to say anything. I think I'm staying alive just to satisfy you.


Virginia Woolf Quotes:

If I were thinking clearly, Leonard, I would tell you that I wrestle alone in the dark, in the deep dark, and that only I can know. Only I can understand my condition. You live with the threat, you tell me you live with the threat of my extinction. Leonard, I live with it too.

Dear Leonard. To look life in the face, always, to look life in the face and to know it for what it is. At last to know it, to love it for what it is, and then, to put it away. Leonard, always the years between us, always the years. Always the love. Always the hours.
