“For some nights I slept profoundly; but still every morning I felt the same lassitude, and a languor weighted upon me all day. I felt myself a changed girl. A strange melancholy was stealing over me, a melancholy that I would not have interrupted.

If it was sad, the tone of mind which this induced was also sweet.”
― Sheridan Le Fanu, Carmilla

“I wonder what it would be like to have something like that. Someone whom you could trust and call your friend since childhood. I have many good women whom I trust and call friends. But they are all recent finds. I don't have anything I've held on to since I was little.”
― Tricia Levenseller, Daughter of the Pirate King
