“The meaning of the word Aftermath is the crop that follows the first harvest which you harvest again. This is the aftermath of our harvest. We deserve this. We are guilty of this. We should reap it up and eat it up. And smile. And say, Yes thank you very much for our aftermath.” – Imogen in Cordelia Lynn’s One for Sorrow
