“I peered through an arched tracery of stone upon the shadowed moon and wondered if I had there a moon-maiden counterpart whose glaucous eyes were slumberous with death.”
Frances Gregg, The Mystic Leeway (Women's Experience Series)

John Cowper Powys
“Life is short and the number of books is appalling.”
John Cowper Powys

Skye Cleary
“The existentialists' view of love is not romantic, because they do not believe in love as an abstract force or amorous sunset walks along the beach. However, Cox also said, "if your idea of romance is somewhat more gothic and stormy, full of heartache, yearning and the thwarted desire to possess breaking up, making up and breaking up again, tears before bedtime and tears in the rain, then maybe it is romantic".”
Skye Cleary, Existentialism and Romantic Love
