Change
Delirium: Um. What's the name of the word for things not being the same always. You know. I'm sure there is one. Isn't there? There must be a word for it...the thing that lets you know time is happening. Is there a word?
Ruby: Beats me, hon.
Dream: Change.
Delirium: Oh. I was afraid of that.

Dream and Destruction
Destruction: My brother. There is nothing I can give you, save this: my advice. Remember what I did. Remember that I left. Remember how hard it was for me to leave; and that it was not your fault.
Dream: That is your advice?
Destruction: Indeed it is. Remember.
Dream: I am not in habit of forgetting things.
Destruction: Dream, my brother. You forget nothing you have interest in; you forget, instantly, those things you do not care to know.
