GREAT SCENES
The New World (Terrence Malick, 2006)

A moment that comes to mind whenever I pause and reflect on the passing of another year, and the promise of a new one. Something about Wagner’s Vorspiel humbles me so.

—

What we call the beginning is often the end
And to make an end is to make a beginning.
The end is where we start from.

- T.S. Eliot, “Little Gidding” (Four Quartets)
