"Around us and stretching away and behind, Road seemed to glow faintly in the quick-fading light, as though it spent an old radiance of its own. The sky was huge over the valley. I wondered then if there were truly cities in the sky; and if there were, could they see us here - two men and their fire...two men in the middle of the vast road where millions had raced. It was evening, it was November. There were two, there had been millions. Did the angels in the city in the sky weep to think of it?No.
No. The angels don't weep.
The angels weep. But for themselves. And they never saw you there."
