Some women are like hearthfires, not much to look at but underneath they are all warm red coal that burns a long, long while.”

But love cleaves through the mind's mathematics. Love's lengthways splits the heart in two - the heart where you are, the heart where you want to be. How will you heal your heart when love has split it in two?”
