“When normal people fall in love, they want a lot of unstated stuff—ridiculous stuff. If they don’t get it, they tend to get angry and do a lot of ridiculous stuff. That’s when endings happen. With true love, endings don’t happen. Situations can certainly end, but love doesn’t end. Otherwise, it isn’t love, is it?”

“حضور حبك يا (راسيا) سيعينني على الكثير، ما كنت لأتوقع أن أحب.. ما كنت لأتوقع أن يلقى لي حظي بالاً للحظة فأحبك أنتِ.. وما كنت لأتوقع أن تغفل قسوة الدنيا عني لحظة فتحبينني أنا.. فليكن حبك حاضرًا يا (راسيا) وسترضى عني الظروف وتلين لي الأسباب لأحقق لكِ ما تتمنين في نفسي وفي هذا العالم.”

“Good God. Good God. She kissed him with everything. As if she wanted to. As if she'd always wanted to. As if her small, slender body were nothing more than a cunningly crafted decanter of some bewitching potion. An essence of desire, aged and corked and waiting for years. As if in one single kiss, she'd sensed her chance to foist it all on him because she was weary of the burden. Take this sweetness, her kiss said. Take this passion. Take all of me.”

“First fervor is false fervor in marriage as in religion. The earliest ecstasy is not the true lasting love we seek to find and hold. That may come to us, but only after many purging trials, fidelities under stress, perseverance through discouragement and steady pursuit of our divine destiny past all the allurements of this earth. The deep, ecstatic love of some Christian fathers and mothers is a beautiful thing to see, but they have won it after passing through their Calvaries. Theirs is the true ecstasy which belongs less to youth than to old age. The first ecstasy of love is a thrill, but a somewhat of a selfish thrill. In it, the lover seeks to get from the beloved all that he will give. In the second ecstasy he tries to receive from God all that both of them can give. If love is identified with the early ecstasy alone, it will seek its prolongation in another person's presence. If it is identified with a unifying, enduring, and eternal love, it will seek the deepening of its mystery in the divine, Who puts all loves into our hearts.”

“Nesta had loved Cassian since she'd first laid eyes on him. Had loved him even when she did not want to, even when she had been swallowed by despair and fear and hatred. Had loved him and destroyed herself because she didn't believe she deserved him, because he was all that was good, and brave, and kind, and she loved him, she loved him, she loved him-”
