Take me away from all these other people, my love. Let us go far away. Let us live our life, all new, all ours, from the very beginning.
Katherine Mansfield, from Stories; "At the Bay"

“I think of love as being at the edges of consciousness, a kind of unsourced resonance that, once there, ends up being gathered, as a rain storm, in mind as dream, as pleasure, as delightful. But like a dream, it can be fuzzy and easily forgotten once one awakens from sleep. One has to have a sense for it, has to be open to it still lingering after the moment of being awakened. You have to trace what happened in the dream by the mood it leaves with you, by the mood that remains, and mood becomes the occasion for movement and withdrawal into the thought of the dream.”
— from Ashon Crawley in conversation with Elleza Kelley
