"Interesting read. I'm not sure how I feel about Doro and Anyanwyu's relationship--it seems clearly that he is using her for his own gain, and that gain seems to create a superrace of spirits with exceptional abilities--think eugenics with a twist. Doro is cruel, selfish and self-focused, and as of now Anyanwu doesn't seem to be able to escape. Quite abusive." — Sep 09, 2012 01:03PM

“I've been in love before, it's like a narcotic. At first it brings the euphoria of complete surrender. The next day you want more. You're not addicted yet, but you like the sensation, and you think you can still control things.You think about the person you love for two minutes then forget them for three hours. But then you get used to that person, and you begin to be completely dependent on them. Now you think about him for three hours and forget him for two minutes. If he's not there, you feel like an addict who can't get a fix. And just as addicts steal and humiliate themselves to get what they need, you're willing to do anything for love."- By the River Piedra I Sat Down and Wept”

“And still, after all this time,
The sun never says to the earth,
"You owe Me."
Look what happens with
A love like that,
It lights the Whole Sky.”

“Caring for myself is not self-indulgence, it is self-preservation, and that is an act of political warfare.”
