“If I could mimic the dynamic of any Shakespearean marriage, I’d choose to mimic the Macbeths—before the murder, ruthless ambition, and torturous descents into madness and death, that is.”
― Jillian Keenan, Sex with Shakespeare: Here's Much to Do with Pain, but More with Love

“We live among mysteries. Love is one, there are others. We must not imagine we understand all there is to know about the world.”
