"The thought of her gave me such a continual anguish that I could no more forget her than an aching tooth. It was involuntary, hopeless, compulsive.

I don't think you can call it stalking when it's just phone calls and letters and emails and knocking on the door. And I only turned up at his work twice.

He was in the Charybdis of passion, and must perforce circle and circle ever nearer round the fatal centre."

"Dead or not, I have come for his heart and I will have it."

"On some days she was able to see both sun and moon at the same time. Like feuding cousins, they hung in two corners of the vast world-ceiling refusing to look at one another. The moon was always harder to spot and more faded, but it was there if you looked, as many things were."
