“She's not classically beautiful, but somehow that only makes her more interesting.”
“She was a classic beauty. She looked like a coin, so it was only natural for her to circulate.”
“She looked long and lean and beautiful, and she was totally unaware of her looks as she called him. She had lived in a world of extraordinary-looking people for so long, and hers was a life of the mind rather than the beauty of face and body. She never thought about it, which somehow made her even more attractive.”
“she whispers it aloud, 'lorelei.' the sound makes her ache, makes the word even more beautiful, even more real. ”
“Somehow, the pain only makes it better, more intense, more worth it.”
“Find a woman who makes you feel more alive. She won't make life perfect but she'll make it infinitely more interesting. And then love her with all that's in you.”
