"But there is a fatality, a feeling so irresistible and inevitable that it has the force of doom, which almost invariably compels human beings to linger around and haunt, ghost-like, the spot where some great and marked event has given the color to their lifetime; and still the more irresistible, the darker the tinge that saddens it"
-The Scarlet Letter, Nathaniel Hawthorne
