But here, on this beautiful islet far from our usual universe, a warrior pope seemed a figment.”
― Gina Buonaguro, The Virgins of Venice

“After making all the mistakes, every player has a chance to turn the outcome of the game around by making the right moves next.”

“If it makes you happier – I’m free.’ The rain came in sudden great swathes across the tree-tops and hit the windows and the roof; like spring rain, out of season. The bedroom air seemed full of unspoken words, unformulated guilts, a vicious silence, like the moments before a bridge collapses. We lay side by side, untouching, effigies on a bed turned tomb; sickeningly afraid to say what we really thought. In the end she spoke, in a voice that tried to be normal, but sounded harsh.”
― John Fowles, The Magus
