“God knows I never sought anything in you except yourself. I wanted simply you, nothing of yours.”
― Heloise, The Letters of Abélard and Héloïse

“If there is anything that may properly be called happiness here below, I am persuaded it is the union of two persons who love each other with perfect liberty, who are united by a secret inclination, and satisfied with each other's merits. Their hearts are full and leave no vacancy for any other passion; they enjoy perpetual tranquillity because they enjoy content.”
― Pierre Abélard, The Letters of Abélard and Héloïse
