"The tamer my love, the farther away it is from love. In fierceness, in heat, in longing, in risk, I find something of love's nature.

This hole in my heart is in the shape of you, and no one else can fit it. Why would I want them to?"
"Saddest of all are the woman who were brought up to believe that self-sacrifice is the highest female virtue."
