“Rise, Elias Veturius.” Tas smacks my face, and I blink at him in surprise. His eyes are fierce. “You gave me a name,” he says. “I want to live to hear it on the lips of others. Rise.”

“You don't love me, Sebastian. You don't have any idea what love really is. You can't love anyone or anything until you love your own existence, first. Love can only grow out of a respect for your own life. When you love yourself, your own existence, then you love someone who can enhance your existence, share it with you, and make it more pleasurable. When you hate yourself and believe your existence is evil, then you can only hate, you can only experience the shell of love, that longing for something good, but you have nothing to base it in but hatred. You taint the very concept of love, Sebastian, with your corrupted longing for it. You want me only to justify your hatred, to be your partner in self-loathing.”

“– Sunt destul de aproape pentru iluziile tale? întreabă ea. – Dacă spun nu, te apropii mai mult? zice el fără să se străduiască să-și ascundă zâmbetul de satisfacție. Drept răspuns, Celia face un pas spre el, tivul rochiei atingându-i acum pantofii. Destul de aproape ca el să ridice brațul și să-și așeze mâna pe talia ei.”
