The needle's worn the groove to deep.

"But there is a real choice after death? My Roman Catholic friends would be surprised, for to them souls in Purgatory are already saved.  And my Protestant friends would like it no better, for they say that the tree lies as it falls."
"They're both right, maybe. Do not fash yourself with such questions. Ye cannot fully understand the relations of choice and Time till you are beyond both.  And ye were not brought here to study such curiosities.  What concerns you is the nature of the choice itself: and that you can watch them making."

-C.S. Lewis The Great Divorce
