There was no way to lock down, or tighten up, or Fail-Safe into Security Theater a race that covers 26.2 miles, a race that travels from town to town, a race that travels past people's houses. There was no way to garrison the Boston Marathon. Now there will be.
The Photograph is concerned with the power that the past has to interfere with the present: the time bomb in the cupboard.
When you ghost hunt, you kind of time travel: you get that residue of the past.
'Closed timelike curve' is the jargon for time travel. It means you go out, come back and meet yourself in the past.
If time travel were possible, you still wouldn't be able to change the past - it's already happened!
The way I toe the line with comedy is I run jokes past people.
The thing I do miss about the way some sequels were in the past was that each film felt like its own unique, complete tone. Now, sequels are tonal facsimiles of the ones before them, like a television series, whereas back in the past sequels would often be radically different from the ones before.

In literature, the ghost is almost always a metaphor for the weight of the past. I don't believe in them in the traditional sense.
In the course of transferring all my CDs to my iPod, I have found myself wandering the musical hallways of my past and reacquainting myself with music I haven't listened to in years.

I must be careful not to get trapped in the past. That's why I tend to forget my songs.
Reality is on a delay. For you, nothing is now. Realizing this fact is unsettling. If we can only react to the past, how do we manage to navigate the present? It's easy to spiral into a treatise on free will while in the fetal position, overthinking our forever past.
Language is the armory of the human mind, and at once contains the trophies of its past and the weapons of its future conquests.
Have you noticed in your past experience that your kind interpretations were almost always truer than you harsh one?
