“when two people have become present to each other, the waiting of one must be able to cross the narrow line between the living or dying of the other.”

“This is fusion, when two people become one. They are so close and so well suited to each other that they blend together. They merge and can't live without each other after that.”

“ If two people share one, their destinies become intertwined. They'll remain a part of each other's lives no matter what.”

“Love is the free exercise of choice. Two people love each other only when they are quite capable of living without each other but choose to live with each other.”

“When two people part who have loved each other it is as if what happens between them befell in a great emptiness - as if the tearing asunder of the flesh must turn at last into a disembodied anguish.”

“Why are old lovers able to become friends? Two reasons. They never truly loved each other, or they love each other still.”
