Status Updates From Olivia

"And so these odious questions of material interest had to be debated when hearts were breaking. When hearts were breaking..."

"When best I loved, then I was best. But lately, had not love too been clouded with exhalations from some obscure depths, at which I shuddered? Why were good and evil so inextricably mixed? Evil? Was there any evil in my love's pure face, in the sweetness of her sensitive lips, in the delicate, pale curve of her cheek, in the deep thoughtful eyes, in the grave brow?"

"In so short a time to be cast from the glories of Paradise into this direful region! It was the first time I learnt how near, how contiguous, are the gates of Heaven and Hell."

"we knew well enough that we were not dancing with each other, that one of us was clasping, the other being clasped by the phantom of her own dreams."

"Georgie," I said, "have you ever been in love?" Georgie's dark eyes gloomed and glowed. I could see her breath quickening.
"Yes," she answered sombrely, "yes."
"And what's it like?"
"Too horrible to speak of." And then, as though some lovely memory were rising from the depths of her heart into the glowing eyes, they softened, melted, shone, behind a veil of tears— "And too delicious—
- Come, let's dance!"

"My indefinite desire was like some pervading, unlocalized ache of my whole being. If I could only know, thought I, where it lies, what it is. In my heart? In my brain?
In my body? But no, all I felt was that I desired something.
Sometimes I thought it was to be loved in return."

so yeah exactly that.
