The word "had" in works of art

All around, deep shadows, as if the world is becoming dark, the sun is fading away. Everything changes, is fleeting. But when we hold each other hand in hand, in tight embrace, even death doesn't matter. We can hold on to happiness, to love, to each other. We can hold on to life itself.

The Road / Vasily Grossman

Until then I had thought each book spoke of the things, human or divine, that lie outside books. Now I realized that not infrequently books speak of books: it is as if they spoke among themselves. In the light of this reflection, the library seemed all the more disturbing to me. It was then the place of a long, centuries-old murmuring, an imperceptible dialogue between one parchment and another, a living thing, a receptacle of powers not to be ruled by a human mind, a treasure of secrets emanated by many minds.

Pride and Prejudice / Jane Austen

Life's but a walking shadow, a poor player that struts and frets his hour upon the stage and is heard no more. It is a tale told by an idiot, full of sound and fury, signifying nothing.

Macbeth / William Shakespeare

She had a perpetual sense, as she watched the taxi cabs, of being out, out, far out to sea and alone; she always had the feeling that it was very, very dangerous to live even one day.

Virginia Woolf / Mrs. Dalloway

Alas! Alas! If only, like a bird, I had wings, how quickly would I fly home to my father's house!
