Child In Time quotes.

Question	Answer
It was Kate's	birthday, because it was early on a monday morning and raining steadily
Three years late,	that they began to cry together at last for the lost, irreplaceable child.
To the incipient	adult within the child, to the forgotten child within the adult
For children,	childhood is timeless. It is always the present. Everything is in the present tense.
You're not all here,	even as i'm talking to you now.
Stephen was to make efforts to re-enter this moment,	to burrow his way back through the folds between events, crawl between the covers, and reverse his decision.
The sweet reek of unchanged clothes and methylated spirits	was strong in the frozen air. A thirty-foot ventilator grill had become a packed dormitory. Stephen walked it's length.
As he walked around the bed,	the feel of the warm boards under his feet brought to mind again the idea of home, and of barely imaginable pleasures.
He was unable to speak,	he was charged with more love than he thought he could bare.
The loss of their only grandchild had whitened his father's	hair in two months, and made his mother's eyes shrink into wrinkled pits.
He had reached the end of a row of bodies and was looking down	at a familiar face. It was hard, small boned, for a moment ageless... The dulled eyes were opened and stared past him...
Stephen spread his coat	over the girl and touched her hand.
