... it’s a blessed thing to love and feel loved in return. - E.A. Bucchianeri, Brushstrokes of a Gadfly

"You cannot hinder someone’s free will, that’s the first law of the Universe, no matter what the decision."

"So it’s true, when all is said and done, grief is the price we pay for love."

"... how terrible is the pain of the mind and heart when the freedom of mankind is suppressed!"

"Well, if it can be thought, it can be done, a problem can be overcome,"

"Love, like everything else in life, should be a discovery, an adventure, and like most adventures, you don’t know you’re having one until you’re right in the middle of it."
