“This is all I can offer, Wilhelmina, this is all of me. What you see is all I can give you, and what you asked of me requires more, so much more.You need more than flesh and mutual attraction. An ardent and eager slave I am, and I would do anything to make you happy. But for what you seek you need two hearts, and I have no heart to give.”
“It doesn't matter how much we are alike, because we're too different to compare.”
“The written word might as well have been my veins, and ink my blood.”
