The beginnings and endings of all human undertakings are untidy.
There will come a time when you believe everything is finished. That will be the beginning.
Some stories don't have a clear beginning, middle and end.
Every new beginning comes from some other beginning's end.
Life is not so much about beginnings and endings as it is about going on and on and on. It is about muddling through the middle.
Great is the art of beginning, but greater is the art of ending.
I wanted a perfect ending. Now I've learned, the hard way, that some poems don't rhyme, and some stories don't have a clear beginning, middle and end.

The great miraculous bell of translucent ice is suspended in mid-air. It rings to announce endings and beginnings. And it rings because there is fresh promise and wonder in the skies. Its clear tones resound in the placid silence of the winter day, and echo long into the silver-blue serenity of night.
