“Passion is sweeter split strand by strand. Divided and re-divided likemercury then gathered up only at the last moment.”

“I like such kisses. They fill the mouth and leave the body free. To kiss well one must kiss solely. No groping hands or stammering hearts. The lips and the lips alone are the pleasure. Passion is sweeter split strand by strand. Divided and re-divided like mercury then gathered up only at the last moment.”

“The truth is that you can divide your heart in all sorts of interesting ways - a little here, a little there, most banked at home, some of it coined out for a flutter. But love cleaves through the mind's mathematics. Love's lengthways splits the heart in two - the heart where you are, the heart where you want to be. How will you heal your heart when love has split it in two?”

“Every moment you steal from the present is a moment you've lost forever. There is only now.”

“Passion out of passion's obstacles.”

“Love's lengthways splits the heart in two - the heart where you are, the heart where you want to be.”

“The continuous narrative of existence is a lie. There is no continuous narrative, there are lit-up moments, and the rest is dark.”
