“If music be the food of love, play on;
Give me excess of it, that, surfeiting,
The appetite may sicken, and so die.
That strain again! it had a dying fall:
O, it came o'er my ear like the sweet sound,
That breathes upon a bank of violets,
Stealing and giving odour! Enough; no more:
'Tis not so sweet now as it was before.
O spirit of love! how quick and fresh art thou,
That, notwithstanding thy capacity
Receiveth as the sea, nought enters there,
Of what validity and pitch soe'er,
But falls into abatement and low price,
Even in a minute: so full of shapes is fancy
That it alone is high fantastical.”
― William Shakespeare, Twelfth Night

“He looked at me with the tired, ignorant, slightly stupid expression that is so common in people who aren't used to seeing the broader picture in small things.”
― Jonas Karlsson , The Room

“All these years I thought a piece of my life was missing. But it was there all along. It was there when I sat beside you in your car and you began to drive. It was there when I sang backwards and you laughed or I made a picnic and you ate every crumb. It was there when you told me you liked my brown suit, when you opened the door for me, when you asked once if I would like to take the long road home. It came later in my garden. When I looked at the sun and saw it glow on my hands. When a rosebud appeared where there had not been one before. It was in the people who stopped and talked of this and that over the garden wall. And just when I thought my life was done, it came time and time again at the hospice. It has been everywhere, my happiness – when my mother sang for me to dance, when my father took my hand to keep me safe – but it was such a small, plain thing that I mistook it for something ordinary and failed to see. We expect our happiness to come with a sign and bells, but it doesn’t.”
― Rachel Joyce, The Love Song of Miss Queenie Hennessy

“- Децата ни гледат през цялото време... те те виждат какъв си наистина. Ти мислиш как ще им четеш приказки, каква музика ще им пускаш... Как ще им се посветиш. Ама не става така. В крайна сметка нямаш време за никакво специално отношение. Те са си като част от живота ти, като всичко останало. И с тях ти си си какъвто си си. Те са свидетели на твоята истинска същност, а не Господ. Те те гледат непрекъснато, а не Господ. Те те изкушават, те те предизвикват да се ядосаш и да станеш лош... и да ги удариш. Ако се поддадеш и ги удариш? Ако съгрешиш? И ги превърнеш в лоши деца... и си продължил злото в живота... на още едно поколение. Те са ти Божието наказание и Божието опрощение. Ако си добър и забравиш себе си и своя яд, и не ги удариш... ако се отдадеш безкористно на децата си, те са твоето опрощение в тоя живот. Не Бог. Те са твоят Бог.
