Quote by Nick Bannister

“I think that I’m done. Are you ready to go?” I’m pinching myself. Could it really be so? And when over she strolls with complete shopping goals, My heart’s just so full that it’s quite set to blow! My cold bitter heart warms a hundred degrees, When she whispers, “I love you,” and gives me a squeeze.”

“I put my arm around her shoulders and hugged her. "Verdancy, my dear, Shih-niang's got something to tell you; I hope you'll listen. It's not easy to be the wife of Flying Warrior, you know. Twenty-four long hours a day your heart is trailing up there after him. You can gaze at the sky, and look and look, until your eyes run with blood, but your men up there won't even know. They're just like so many iron birds - one moment they fly to the east, the next moment they fly to the west; you just can't catch them. Since you're married into our Village, Verdancy, please don't mind if I speak frankly to you: you've just got to harden your heart in order to endure the storm and stress that is to come.”

“Anne's Will by Stewart Stafford Young Shakespeare set off to London town, To quill and ink his masterpiece plays, Still, Anne Hathaway grew anxious; Marriage and family rent twain ways. He vowed to send back funds to them, With a fledgling kiss, Will was gone, Tearful goodbyes of wife and daughters, Stratford shrank, cartwheels spun. The distance honeyed homesickness, The farther from hearth Will roamed, The capital's theatres awaited him; Words etched in stone in folio tome. The absentee bard kept his word true; Admirably providing for kin well, Through a bitter, lonely aftertaste, With only one truism to tell: "For, aye, where'er there was a Will, Truly, good Anne always hath a way." © Stewart Stafford, 2024.

“एक पटकको बर्षात्‌ले कतिन्जेल भिजाएर राख्न सक्छ र धरतीलाई ? धरतीलाई ओसिलो र मलिलो राख्न बर्षात्‌ भई नै रहनुपर्छ । पुरुषहरू शायद यो बुझ्नै सक्दैनन् । त्यसैले त एकै सिजनमा मायाले निथ्रुक्क भिजाएर बाँकी जीवन बर्सिनै बिर्सिदिन्छन् उनीहरू । र चाहन्छन् त्यही एक सिजनको बर्षात्‌को सहारामा हामी महिलाहरू आजीवन भिजिरहौँ । कसरी सम्भव हुनसक्छ यो ?”

“I gave the best and all my life to a girdled tree. It was live oak, and was good for any purpose, except for blossom and fruit, and I am not willing for Belle to be content with anything less than the whole of a man's heart. [Varina Davis, Letter to a friend, advising against his daughter Belle marrying a widower]”
