A title?

My second manuscript, which has had the working title Weird Catholic Stuff may be inching towards a different title. My sister Wendy Ewell sends this extraordinary quote, from one of my favourite authors, Willa Cather.

"What was any art but a mold in which to imprison for a moment the shining elusive element which is life itself - life hurrying past us and running away, too strong to stop, too sweet to lose."

Too Strong to Stop; Too Sweet to Lose is an unwieldy title, but it does capture the feel of the book, especially the "Systems of Knowledge" section, in a very few words. And it has an excitement to it, a feeling of rightness.
