“But it shows you, don't it?"-his eye went down to the tankard again,-"it shows you,too, how we poor human beings fail to understand one another.”

“Love is a temporary madness, it erupts like volcanoes and then subsides. And when it subsides, you have to make a decision. You have to work out whether your roots have so entwined together that it is inconceivable that you should ever part. Because this is what love is. Love is not breathlessness, it is not excitement, it is not the promulgation of promises of eternal passion, it is not the desire to mate every second minute of the day, it is not lying awake at night imagining that he is kissing every cranny of your body. No, don't blush, I am telling you some truths. That is just being "in love", which any fool can do. Love itself is what is left over when being in love has burned away, and this is both an art and a fortunate accident.”

“Hvis Gud ikke også sætter pris på skønhed, havde hun tænkt, ville han ikke have skabt verden, som han har. Ikke have skabt blomsterne og fuglene og dyrenes blide øjne. Ikke have ladet solen stå op og gå ned i et hav af guld og rosa. Ikke have gjort lyngen lilla om efteråret og tyttebærrene røde, ikke ladet timian og våd jord dufte. Ikke have gjort spædbørnenes hud så blød, ikke ladet dem gribe om fingre med sådan en fasthed.”
