What a terrible thing it is to botch a farewell ... I'll tell you one thing I hate about my nickname, the way the numbers run on forever. It's important in life to conclude things properly. Only then you can let go. Otherwise you are left with words you should have said but never did, and your heart is heavy with remorse. That bungled goodbye hurts me to this day
Yann Martel, Life of Pi
