Our Town Quotes

So - people a thousand years from now...This is the way we were: in our growing up and in our marrying and in our living and in our dying.

Yes, now you know. Now you know! That's what it was to be alive. To move about in a cloud of ignorance; to go up and down trampling on the feelings of those...of those about you. To spend and waste time as though you had a million years. To be always at the mercy of one self-centered passion, or another. Now you know — that's the happy existence you wanted to go back to. Ignorance and blindness.

Everybody has a right to their own troubles.
