“In my great melancholy, I loved life, for I love my melancholy.”
“And so being young and dipped in folly I fell in love with melancholy.”
“I stayed there loving you, though the love made me, not sad but I guess melancholy, for a reason I couldn’t pointto.”
“My melancholy is the most faithful sweetheart I have had.”
“I want to eat the melancholy I can feel inside my ribs, beside my heart.I want to eat the sad...”
“I preach that odd defiant melancholy that sees the dreadful loneliness of the human soul and the pitiful disaster of human life as ever redeemable and redeemed by compassion, friendship and love.”
