“memories should be sharp when one has nothing else to live for”

“Scott-there's nothing in the world I want but you-and your precious love. All the material things are nothing. I'd just hate to live in a sordid, colorless existence-because you'd soon love less-and less-and I'd do anything-anything-to keep your heart for my own-I don't want to live-I want to love first and live incidentally.”

“I am really only myself when I'm somebody else whom I have endowed with these wonderful qualities from my imagination.”

“I dont' want to live - I want to love first, and live incidentally.”

“I don't want to live, I want to love first and live incidentally.”

“Nothing could have survived our life.”

“I believed I was a salamander, and it seems I am nothing but an impediment.”
