“For where all love is, the speaking is unnecessary”
― Diana Gabaldon, Outlander

“She should have remembered that people have given everything they own, everything they are, to be taken care of, and to have their pain gone.

― Laurell K. Hamilton, The Harlequin

“Love sucks. Sometimes it feels good. Sometimes it's just another way to bleed.”
― Laurell K. Hamilton, Blue Moon
