There is nothing I would not do for those who are really my friends. I have no notion of loving people by halves; it is not my nature.

Jane Austen, Northanger Abbey

Walking slowly, I found myself not saying but feeling goodbye - not farewell. Farewell has a sweet sound of reluctance. Goodbye is short and final, a word with teeth sharp to bite through the string that ties past to future.

The Winter of Our Discontent, John Steinbeck

“We react

within these bodies to pain and heat and cold

according to the workings of that Will

which does not will that all Its ways be told.

he is insane who dreams that he may learn

by mortal reasoning the boundless orbit

Three Persons in One Substance fill and turn.”

{dante, the divine comedy}

“Some change had come over her body. Death had given back part of her beauty, for her brow and cheeks had recovered some of their flowing lines; even the lips had lost their deadly pallor. It was as if the blood, no longer needed for the working of the heart, had gone to make the harshness of death as little rude as might be.

We thought her dying whilst she slept

And sleeping when she died.”

~ Dracula, Bram Stoker

I am jealous of those who think more deeply, who write better, who draw better, who look better, who live better, who love better than I.

The person, be it gentleman or lady, who has not pleasure in a good novel, must be intolerably stupid.

If I should put the rules aside for a time, I knew I would wear scars but would they be worse than the scars of failure I was wearing? To be alive at all is to have scars. The Winter of Our Discontent, John Steinbeck

“Nothing discernible to the eye of the spirit is more brilliant or obscure than man; nothing is more formidable, complex, mysterious, and infinite. There is a prospect greater than the sea, and it is the sky; there is a prospect greater than the sky, and it is the human soul.”

— Victor Hugo, Les Miserables

“Your task is not to seek for love, but merely to seek and find all the barriers within yourself that you have built against it.”
