Quote by Sándor Márai

“Díval se na krajinu, jejíž samota a smutek se ho dotýkali jako dosud nikdy: očima své ženy viděl vahadlovou studnu, vyprahlé pole, březové hájky a rúžová oblaka na soumračné obloze nad rovinou. Vlast se řed nimi rozevřela a gardistovi se rozbušilo srdce, když si uvedomil, že krajina, která je přijímá, znamená pro ně i osud.”

“What if... all the rules and ways we lay down in our heads, don't even exist at all? What if we only believe that they're there, because we want to think that they're there? All the formalities of morality and the decisions that we see ourselves making in order to be better (or the best)... what if we think we've got it all under control— but we don't? What if the path for you, is one that you would never dare take because you never saw yourself going that way? And then what if you realized that one day— would you take the path for you? Or would you choose to believe in your rules and your reasons? Your moralities and your hopes? What if your own hope, and your own morality— are going the other way?”

“I didn't tell Frilla how being with Dianna made days feel like minutes, how time started to not exist the closer I had gotten to Dianna. After a while, against my better judgement, she was all I saw, all I thought about, and no matter how much I lied to myself in the beginning, she was all I craved. She lit a spark inside me, chasing away the harrowing darkness, and all it did was burn brighter the more I was with her. I never wanted it to go out, and I was afraid of what lengths I would go to keep it.”

“Our best moral stories don’t tell us what is right or wrong in every situation, but they show us what one character did in one situation at one time. Readers, viewers, and listeners are supposed to extrapolate the moral meaning from the story. We’re not supposed to have it handed to us.”

“When we collide It’s like taking a bite of your favorite dish. one that you haven't had in a while. So satisfying and necessary. When we collide It’s so legendary that people speak about our union. like it's a myth that doesn't exist. When we collide it's like a chef's kiss. So perfect and amazing in every way. When we collide, I wish I could be with you forever. giving and receiving pleasure that's always beyond measure. that's only achieved when we're together. When we collide our bodies, our hearts, and our minds intertwine. and move smoothly as one. Our collision is second to none. and when I think that it's done you sing softly in my ear. We’ve only just begun.”
