“She feels the boundaries of her self expand, filling the space around her, leaving no lack, no gap where a man should be.”
― Allegra Huston, Say My Name

“...Love everybody, but nobody in particular. The secret of happiness. But you have to earn it."
"With blood and tears?"
"No, my dear boy. Just with time. By aging, By paying your dues. You must have loved deeply and truly, at least once. Without an agenda, and absolutely without a list of things that need fixing.”
― Allegra Huston, Say My Name

“Do I need someone to be of use to, in order to justify my existence? she wonders. Do I need someone to desire me, in order to feel alive? Do men ever think like this?”
― Allegra Huston, Say My Name

“I believe it is scientifically proven that when atoms collide, which atoms do all the time, they leave an imprint on each other. Two shapes caused by the impact, which fit together-what a plumber would call male and female. And they're drawn back to that perfect fit. This, by the way, is possibly also the physics of love. And reincarnation.”
― Allegra Huston, Say My Name
