Post extracts prior to Chapter One

Book Extracts - prior to Chapter One.

Do you think they set the tone of the book?
Did you spend time thinking about why they were chosen?
Did you go back and re-read these once you finished the book?

I found it easier to relate to 'More Fruits of Solitude' than The Libation Bearers'. What are your thoughts?

More Fruits of Solitude
Death is, but crossing the world, as friends do the seas; they live in one another still. (alluding to horcrux perhaps?).
For they must needs be present, that love and live in that which is omnipresent. (reference to Dumbledore perhaps?)
In this divine glass they see face to face; and their converse is free, as well as pure. (Chapter 35, Kings Cross perhaps?)
This is the comfort of friends, that though they may be said to die, yet their friendship and society are, in the best sense, ever present, because Immortal.

William Penn, More Fruits of Solitude
