“Cross that rules the Southern Sky!Stars that sweep, and turn, and flyHear the Lovers' Litany: -'Love like ours can never die!”
“You can’t herd the stars. You can only gaze at them, never touch, like love. Yes, you can ‘be’ in love and ‘fall’ in love, but you can never ‘touch’ love. You can only touch things that represent love, like a lover, or a book, or a lover’s book, or lovers in a book.”
“The star-crossed lovers”
“Small said, "But what about when we are dead and gone, will you love me then, does love go on?"…Large (replied) "Look at the stars, how they shine and glow, some of the stars died a long time ago. Still they shine in the evening skies, for you see…love like starlight never dies…”
“A star can never die. It just turns into a smile and melts back into the cosmic music, the dance of life.”
“...as for unhappy families, star-crossed lovers, and exiled heroes, they are simply universal.”
