― Frank Herbert, Dune

“My head hurt. I was tired of getting money in exchange for loved ones.”
― Gus Moreno, This Thing Between Us

“Were you in love with him?'
'Yes,' I say, simply. James and I put each other through the kind of reckless passions Gwendolyn once talked about, joy and anger and desire and despair. After all that, was it really so strange? I am no longer baffled or amazed or embarrassed by it. 'Yes, I was.' It's not the whole truth. The whole truth is, I'm in love with him still.”
― M.L. Rio, If We Were Villains

“You were you and I was me and there was this thing between us.”
― Gus Moreno, This Thing Between Us
