Quote by Helen Humphreys

“Memory is a barricade against forgetting; light is a bulwark against darkness; life is a flex against the stillness of the grave. Maybe that's what I'm trying to do here, clear a space in all the debris, through all the anxieties and worries, where I can just exist, easily and simply, entire, for as long as I have left.”

“I love you and always have. The great heavens and the ultimatum of the universe have driven me straight to you…. And I love you. I love you so hopelessly and boundlessly and powerlessly. I love you existentially. I love you physically. I love freely. I love you as if my soul was stamped for your custody before it ever entered the damned world.”
