"'You can't repeat the past'
'Can't repeat the past?' he cried incredulously.
'Why of course you can!'
-- F. Scott Fitzgerald, The Great Gatsby
'In the spring of 1984, a woman in her early thirties said to me: ' You don't understand this time town because you're an outsider. You don't know what it was like here twenty years ago. That's what we want; that's what we have to get back to.'"
