“Sometimes a person can have a lot of good things but not the right thing, or at least not enough of it. Sometimes passion is like falling in love alone.”
― Daniel Barnett, Poor Things

“I dare do all that may become a man;
Who dares do more, is none”
― William Shakespeare, Macbeth

“In Greek tragedy, they fall from great heights. In noir, they fall from the curb.”
― Dennis Lehane

“The dove descending breaks the air
With flame of incandescent terror
Of which the tongues declare
The one discharge from sin and error.
The only hope, or else despair
Lies in the choice of pyre or pyre-
To be redeemed from fire by fire.

Who then devised the torment? Love.
Love is the unfamiliar Name
Behind the hands that wove
The intolerable shirt of flame
Which human power cannot remove.
We only live, only suspire
Consumed by either fire or fire.”
― T.S. Eliot, Four Quartets
