Quotes by Sarah Cornwell (?)

“There are those people in your life who matter instantly, on another plane, and you have to marry them or kill them or run the hell away, you can't do it halfway. I hope her house is full of paintings. I hope somebody loves her.”
― Sarah Cornwell, What I Had Before I Had You

“What if all the transcendent moments of your life, the sound-track moments, the radiant detail, the gleaming thing at the center of life that loves you, that loves beauty—God or whatever you call it—what if all this were part of your illness?”
― Sarah Cornwell, What I Had Before I Had You
