“That's when you know for sure somebody loves you. They figure out what you need and they give it to you -- without you asking.”
Adriana Trigiani, Very Valentine

Ralph Waldo Emerson
“How much of human life is lost in waiting.”
Ralph Waldo Emerson

“No reader can fail to agree that the number of books she needs to read far exceeds her capacities, but when the passion for rereading kicks in, the faint guilt that therefore attends the indulgence only serves to intensify its sweetness.”
Patricia Meyers Spacks

C.S. Lewis
“Mental pain is less dramatic than physical pain, but it is more common and also more hard to bear. The frequent attempt to conceal mental pain increases the burden: it is easier to say “My tooth is aching” than to say “My heart is broken.”
C.S. Lewis, The Problem of Pain

Emery Lee
“True vice, my lady, would frighten us all, if it did not wear the mask of virtue. (p.56)”
Emery Lee, Fortune's Son
