Yelena youve driven me crazy. Youve caused me considerable trouble and Ive contemplated ending your life twice since Ive known you. Valeks warm breath in my ear sent a shiver down my spine.But youve slipped under my skin invaded my blood and seized my heart.That sounds more like a poison than a person was all I could say. His confession had both shocked and thrilled me.Exactly Valek replied. You have poisoned me.

He did not care if she was heartless vicious and vulgar stupid and grasping he loved her. He would rather have misery with one than happiness with the other.

Owning our story can be hard but not nearly as difficult as spending our lives running from it. Embracing our vulnerabilities is risky but not nearly as dangerous as giving up on love and belonging and joythe experiences that make us the most vulnerable. Only when we are brave enough to explore the darkness will we discover the infinite power of our light.

I want love to conquer all. But love cant conquer anything. It cant do anything on its own.It relies on us to do the conquering on its behalf.

Maybe mistakes are what make our fate... without them what would shape our lives Maybe if we had never veered off course we wouldnt fall in love have babies or be who we are. After all things change so do cities people come into your life and they go. But its comforting to know that the ones you love are always in your heart... and if youre very lucky a plane ride away

He suddenly recalled from Platos Symposium People were hermaphrodites until God split then in two and now all the halves wander the world over seeking one another. Love is the longing for the half of ourselves we have lost.

How do I love thee Let me count the ways.I love thee to the depth and breadth and heightMy soul can reach when feeling out of sightFor the ends of being and ideal grace.I love thee to the level of every daysMost quiet need by sun and candle-light.I love thee freely as men strive for right.I love thee purely as they turn from praise.I love thee with the passion put to useIn my old griefs and with my childhoods faith.I love thee with a love I seemed to loseWith my lost saints. I love thee with the breathSmiles tears of all my life and if God chooseI shall but love thee better after death.

aku ingin mencintaimu dengan sederhanadengan kata yang tak sempat diucapkankayu kepada api yang menjadikannya abuaku ingin mencintaimu dengan sederhanadengan isyarat yang tak sempat disampaikan awan kepada hujan yang menjadikannya tiada

When you forgive you love. And when you love Gods light shines upon you.

There is no intensity of love or feeling that does not involve the risk of crippling hurt. It is a duty to take this risk to love and feel without defense or reserve.
