“I loved that man as I have loved no one else. I do not say I loved him more than I love your mother. But that the way I loved him was different. But if you have heard there was anything improper in our bond, there was not. That was not what we were to one another. What we had went beyond that.”
― Robin Hobb, Fool's Assassin

“You look down when you talk to a headstone! When you talk to a live person, you look up!
I'm still alive! So treat me like it!
Look at me!”
― Kazuya Minekura, Wild Adapter Volume 5

“The fact that I’m silent doesn’t mean I have nothing to say.”
― Jonathan Carroll

“You have been with me, as close as the tips of my fingers, even when we were years and seas apart. Your being was like the hum of a plucked string at the edge of my hearing, or a scent carried on a breeze. Did not you feel it so?”
― Robin Hobb, Fool's Errand
