Jean Baudrillard
“Man is obsessed with woman (this does not seem to be mutual). Possession does not set him free from obsession. Above and beyond jouissance, his obsession with her remains. It is an obsession with something like an eternally feminine prior state, an idea or fleshly form which was there before you and will outlive you. All other obsessions refer back to this one.
It is fuelled by the secret desire to wrest from woman more than she gives you or has ever given you, to wrest from her her femininity itself. Woman-as-object is the purest expression of this obsession, since it is the object that is ungraspable. And it is in becoming-object that woman puts herself out of reach, and becomes the horizon of the obsessional desire.

Just as it would be necessary to remove many other veils to wrest from women the secret of their power, so it would take many other tortures to wrest from men the secret underlying their unafraidness of death.”
Jean Baudrillard, Cool Memories V: 2000 - 2004

He'd been obsessed with finding her for centuries, but he'd never considered what he would feel when he found her. Not love. Not this overwhelming, terrifying feeling that shook him to his core. He hadn't known love could be felt through one's entire body. That it could manifest itself physically.”
Christine Feehan, Dark Legacy

Cate C. Wells, Run Posy Run

Clarice Lispector
“Quando começava, todas as suas fibras eriçavam-se, irritadas e magníficas. E enquanto não cobria o papel com suas letras nervosas, enquanto não sentia que elas eram o seu prolongamento, não cessava, esgotando-se até o fim...”
