“I am not commanding you, but I want to test the sincerity of your love by comparing it to the earnestness of others.”

“Eventually I came across another passage. This is what it said:I am not commanding you, but I want to treat the sincerity of your love by comparing it to the earnestness of others.The words made me choke up again, and just as I was about to cry, the meaning of it suddenly became clear.God had finally answered me, and I suddenly knew what I had to do.”

“When I asked you if you wanted to, I was not testing your courage. I was testing your wisdom.”

“Of everything I have seen, it's you I want to go on seeing: of everything I've touched, it's your flesh I want to go on touching. I love your orange laughter. I am moved by the sight of you sleeping. What am I to do, love, loved one? I don't know how others love or how people loved in the past. I live, watching you, loving you. Being in love is my nature.”

“I am what I am and you can't take it away with all the words and sneers at your command.”

“I don't want your love unless you know i am repulsive,and love me even as you know it.”
