Iris Murdoch
“Intense mutual erotic love that involves with the flesh all the refined sexual beings of the spirit, which reveals and perhaps even ex nihilo creates spirit as sex, is comparatively rare in this inconvenient world. This love presents itself as such a dizzily lofty value that even to speak of 'enjoying' it seems a sacrilege. It is something to be undergone upon one's knees. And where it exists it cannot but shed a blazing light of justification upon its own scene, a light which can leave the rest of the world dark indeed.”
Iris Murdoch, The Sacred and Profane Love Machine

Cressida Cowell
“You can Cheat a Dragon's Curse.
You do not have to accept the hand that Fate has dealt you.”

“Loving confers no rights”

- It's all to do with the hygiene of the ego. A successful religion is a recipe for an innocent-feeling fantasy life and happy sex.
- Even if one's a hermit or an ascetic on a pillar?
- Especially if one's a hermit or an ascetic on a pillar.”
Iris Murdoch, The Sacred and Profane Love Machine

Cressida Cowell
“Sometimes it is only a True Friend who knows what we mean when we try to speak. Somebody who has spent a lot of time with us, and listens carefully to what we are trying to say, and tries to understand.”
Cressida Cowell, How to Cheat a Dragon's Curse
