“In love, no one can harm anyone else; we are each of us responsible for our own feelings and cannot blame someone else for what we feel.

That is the true experience of freedom: having the most important thing in the world without owning it.”

― Anaïs Nin

“Heathen, n. A benighted creature who has the folly to worship something he can see and feel.”
― Ambrose Bierce, The Unabridged Devil's Dictionary

“Waiting is painful. Forgetting is painful. But not knowing which to do is the worst kind of suffering.”
― Paulo Coelho, By the River Piedra I Sat Down and Wept
