“Nothing lasts, really. Neither happiness nor despair. Not even life lasts very long. There'll come a time in the future when I shan't mind about this anymore, when I can look back and say quite peacefully and cheerfully how silly I was... No, no, I don't want that time to come ever. I want to remember every minute, always, always to the end of my days.”
Celia Johnson as Laura Jesson in Brief Encounter (1945) dir. David Lean

It's such a little while ago, really, but it seems an eternity since that train went out of the station, taking him away, into the darkness. I was happy then.
