Quote by Kristina Mahr

“Is that what you want to hear? That I fought for something sinking. That I didn't leave it once it'd sunk. That I saw the shore & turned around & believed in you - even as I drowned.”

“To the beloved and deplored memory of her who was the inspirer, and in part the author, of all that is best in my writings—the friend and wife whose exalted sense of truth and right was my strongest incitement, and whose approbation was my chief reward—I dedicate this volume. Like all that I was written for many years, it belongs as much to her as to me; but the work as it stands has had, in a very insufficient degree, the inestimable advantage of her revision; some of the most important portions having been reserved for a more careful re-examination, which they are now never destined to receive. Were I but capable of interpreting to the world one half the great thoughts and noble feelings which are buried in her grave, I should be the medium of a greater benefit to it, than is ever likely to arise from anything that I can write, unprompted and unassisted by her all but unrivaled wisdom.”

I knew they were together, but now they're engaged.' Skye threw up her arms. 'We were together for five years. She asked me to marry her after two, and things were great then, truly.' Skye's eyes misted over for a moment. Then she shook herself. 'We had a big wedding - at the same hotel would you believe? - and when I said my vows, I meant them. For better, for worse. In sickness and in health. I don't recall there being a vow that said, "until the next young thing comes along, and I get a better offer.' She slumped forward and rested her forehead on her fore-arm.”
