An elderly lady said something to me. She's of a condition where she's unable to remember my name for more than a few minutes, and often forgot I was nearby. Very kind individual, with a good heart. She said this:
"How can we do this; me not knowing who I am and you not knowing who you are. It's all over now."
It seemed so ridiculously profound that I had to write it down. Her speech seemed to transcend mere personal references to speak for the whole of humanity.

That's a great quote. Look up absurdist playwrights Beckett, Ionesco... you'll be blown away.
