“Love is the ultimate outlaw. It just won't adhere to any rules. The most any of us can do is to sign on as its accomplice. Instead of vowing to honor and obey, maybe we should swear to aid and abet.

― Tom Robbins, Still Life with Woodpecker

“Never compete with someone who has nothing to lose.”
― Baltasar Gracian

“It was one of those fine little love stories that can make you smile in your sleep at night.”
― Hunter S. Thompson, Kingdom of Fear: Loathsome Secrets of a Star-Crossed Child in the Final Days of the American Century
