“A rose by any other name
Would get the blame
For being what it is--
The colour of a kiss,
The shadow of a flame.

A rose may earn another name,
So call it love;
So call it love I will,
And love is like the sea,
Which changes constantly,
And yet is still
The same.”
― Tanith Lee, The Silver Metal Lover

― Tanith Lee, Red as Blood, or Tales from the Sisters Grimmer

“Ring the bells that still can ring
Forget your perfect offering
There is a crack in everything
That's how the light gets in.”
― Leonard Cohen

“An apology for the devil: it must be remembered that we have heard one side of the case. God has written all the books.”
― Samuel Butler, The Note Books Of Samuel Butler
