"I know it's not easy for you, living this life, but try to remember, always try to remember, you're not the only one with troubles."
"Happiness. It was the place where passion, with all its dazzle and drumbeat, met something softer: homecoming and safety and pure sunbeam comfort. It was all those things, intertwined with the heat and the thrill, and it was as bright within her as a swallowed star."
"Love is a luxury.""No. Love is an element."An element. Like air to breathe, earth to stand on."
"And they were quiet but their blood and nerves and butterflies were not—they were rampantly alive, rushing and thrumming in a wild and perfect melody, matched note for note."
