“If you have love, even plain cold water is sweet.”
“When he asked my grandmother if she would mind being poor, she said she would be happy just to have her daughter and himself: 'If you have love, even plain water is sweet.”
“For a cup brimful of sweet water cannot spill even one drop of bitter water, however suddenly jolted.”
“I'll see if I can't make the bitter waters sweet by the intensity of love I bear you”
“...by bringing myself over the edge and back, I discovered a passion to live my days fully, a conviction that will sustain me like sweet water on the periodically barren plain of our short lives.”
“That's what dessert means to me: a dollop of sweet love in an otherwise cold world.”
