“Some will tell you Love is merely chemical, my friends, said Adam one. Of course it is chemical: where would any of us be without chemistry? But science is merely one way of describing the world. Another way of describing it would be to say: where would any of us be without Love?”

“Who am I to tell her who to love? My job just to love her good and true myself. P. 237”
