"O passado é obstinado. Ele não quer mudar."
Excelente livro, com muitas reviravoltas, ação, romance e humor. Stephen King nos mostrou nessa narrativa que a viagem no tempo pode ser plausível e ao mesmo tempo aterrorizante.

“Yes, I began my journey alone, and I ended it alone.

“I was confused, thinking that my pain and my loss were one and the same thing, whereas one was but a symptom of the other.”

“The most important words a man can say are, “I will do better.” These are not the most important words any man can say. I am a man, and they are what I needed to say.
The ancient code of the Knights Radiant says “journey before destination.” Some may call it a simple platitude, but it is far more. A journey will have pain and failure. It is not only the steps forward that we must accept. It is the stumbles. The trials. The knowledge that we will fail. That we will hurt those around us.
But if we stop, if we accept the person we are when we fall, the journey ends. That failure becomes our destination. To love the journey is to accept no such end. I have found, through painful experience, that the most important step a person can take is always the next one.
I’m certain some will feel threatened by this record. Some few may feel liberated. Most will simply feel that it should not exist. I needed to write it anyway.”
