“Existence, after losing her, would be hell”

“Two words would comprehend my future -- death and hell: existence, after losing her, would be hell.”

“A man loses his sense of direction after four drinks; a woman loses hers after four kisses.”

“Appreciative love gazes and holds its breath and is silent, rejoices that such a wonder should exist even if not for him, will not be wholly dejected by losing her, would rather have it so than never to have seen her at all.”

“...Sula was wrong. Hell ain't things lasting forever. Hell is change." Not only did men leave and children grow up and die, but even the misery didn't last. One day she wouldn't even have that. This very grief that had twisted her into a curve on the floor and flayed her would be gone. She would lose that too.Why, even in hate here I am thinking of what Sula said.”

“The warmth of hell would be a blessing after this. Do you suppose there is a cold hell for those who died in wintertime?- Fernandez de Anguilar”
