Emily Sullivan > Quotes

“Was it possible that loneliness had nothing to do with circumstances, but only with the way one met them?”
― Emily Sullivan

“She wanted something that was beyond money, beyond machinations and subterfuge. She wanted to be needed by a finite heart, even if it meant enduring pain when it ceased to beat. She wanted to give love and be loved in return, even if it meant giving up possibilities. She no longer wanted to live for herself alone, guided only by her own desires, but to be deeply known, like she had once been.”
― Emily Sullivan
