We must each be a whole person and therefore we each need some privacy to be alone with ourselves and our own feelings.”
― Mary Balogh, First Comes Marriage

“I was always hungry for love. Just once, I wanted to know what it was like to get my fill of it -- to be fed so much love I couldn't take any more. Just once. ”
