“she had looked out into the gulf of the night, and it had suddenly seemed as if her life had been a noise all about nothing.”

“I vow that every moment of your company shall be held as dear to me as god-spun gold, as precious as fleeting mortal lives. I vow that even with an eternity to have you by my side, I shall never tire of seeing your eyes cast in moonlight and your lips kissed by the sun. With you at my side, I can never feel lost, never feel loneliness, never feel the endless agony of a life without purpose. With you at my side, I am complete, and I dedicate all my life to loving and completing you.”
― Marissa Meyer, Cursed

“I expect all husbands are alike in the long run.”
