“What we all want, really, is to be loved. That craving drives our worst behavior.”
― Jodi Picoult, Handle with Care

“I don't understand why it's a sin if you love something and want to keep it from having to suffer.”
― Jodi Picoult, Handle with Care

“Pourquoi nier l’évidente nécessité de la mémoire?”
― Marguerite Duras, Hiroshima mon amour

“If we shadows have offended,
Think but this, and all is mended,
That you have but slumbered here
While these visions did appear.
And this weak and idle theme,
No more yielding but a dream,
Gentles, do not reprehend:
If you pardon, we will mend:
And, as I am an honest Puck,
If we have unearned luck
Now to 'scape the serpent's tongue,
We will make amends ere long;
Else the Puck a liar call;
So, good night unto you all.
Give me your hands, if we be friends,
And Robin shall restore amends.”
― William Shakespeare, A Midsummer Night’s Dream
