“The universe, actually, is ablaze. The planets lose track of their orbits, the birds are poets now and all the songs written before this and all the ones that’ll come after this are about this moment; about how when we’re standing my ear rests right where his heart is, how one hand of his swallows a whole half of my waist. The beautiful nothingness of this, the most intimate moment of my life to date, a life that, actually, has been dotted with much intimacy and I think nothing will ever beat him resting his chin on top of my head.”
― Jessa Hastings, Daisy Haites

“I’m not an emotional man, and I hate public displays of affection.”

“Daisy’s that feeling you get when you’re floating on your back in a pool and there’s so much fucking noise around you until you put your ears under and it all goes quiet. That’s how she feels to me.”
― Jessa Hastings, Daisy Haites

“There is no good on earth; and sin is but a name. Come, devil. For to thee is this world given,”
― Cora Reilly, Bound by Duty
