"In many ways, the thing that lasts is like a nautilus shell: it’s lovely, but it’s not what the nautilus thought was really important at the time." -- Abi Sutherland, "Making Light"
This is a similar thought to what John Lennon said, that "Life is what happens while you're making other plans."
What we are sure is vitally important to us in any moment or over a period of years may not be the real story of our lives -- and it is not likely to be what is remembered about us.
This was Konstantin Stanislavski's stroke of genius, too.
