Rabindranath Tagore
“By plucking her petals you do not gather the beauty of the flower.”
Rabindranath Tagore, Stray Birds

L.M. Montgomery
“As she walked along she dramatized the night. There was about it a wild, lawless charm that appealed to a certain wild, lawless strain hidden deep in Emily’s nature—the strain of the gypsy and the poet, the genius and the fool.”
Lucy Maud Montgomery, Emily Climbs

Mikhail Bulgakov
“In the first few seconds an aching sadness wrenched his heart, but it soon gave way to a feeling of sweet disquiet, the excitement of gypsy wanderlust”
Mikhail Bulgakov

Lorrie Moore
“When she packed up to leave, she knew that she was saying goodbye to something important, which was not that bad, in a way, because it meant that at least you had said hello to it to begin with...”
Lorrie Moore, Birds of America: Stories

“Dare I say I miss him? I do. I miss him. I still see him in my dreams. They are nightmares mostly, but nightmares tinged with love.

I still cannot understand how he could abandon me so unceremoniously, without any sort of goodbye, without looking back even once. That pain is like an axe that chops at my heart.”
Yann Martel, Life of Pi
