“When I get lonely these days, I think: So BE lonely, Liz. Learn your way around loneliness. Make a map of it. Sit with it, for once in your life. Welcome to the human experience. But never again use another person's body or emotions as a scratching post for your own unfulfilled yearnings.”
― Elizabeth Gilbert, Eat, Pray, Love

― Julia Quinn, When He Was Wicked

― Julia Quinn, An Offer From a Gentleman

“You love me. Real or not real?"
I tell him, "Real.”
