“My love for Linton is like the foliage in the woods: time will change it, I'm well aware, as winter changes the trees.

― Emily Brontë, Wuthering Heights

“Fate is like a strange, unpopular restaurant filled with odd little waiters who bring you things you never asked for and don't always like.”
― Lemony Snicket
