“One describes a tale best by telling the tale. You see? The way one describes a story, to oneself or to the world, is by telling the story. It is a balancing act and it is a dream.

The tale is the map that is the territory.
You must remember this.”
― Neil Gaiman, American Gods

“There is nothing I would not do for those who are really my friends. I have no notion of loving people by halves, it is not my nature.”
― Jane Austen, Northanger Abbey

“Was there ever a trap to match the trap of love?”

“The world changes, we do not, therein lies the irony that kills us.”
― Anne Rice, Interview with the Vampire
