In the evening, it's like it dies, waiting to be born again the next morning.”

As a father, he was at times grateful for that missing intensity, but as a man who liked to surprise his wife with flowers, it baffled him.

"Then come back with us, lady," whispered Ranhé, "and restore the truth as it once was.”
― Vera Nazarian, Lords of Rainbow

“The closest I’ve come to sparks flying at my writing hangout was when an elderly man’s portable oxygen tubes fell off his face while he was reaching for a piece of pie. I bent over to pick them up for him, and when I attempted to hand them over, our fingers brushed, and I felt a gust of air blow right between my legs. The moment was ruined when I looked down to see that I had yanked the tubes out of the tank, and it was blowing fresh O2 right in my special place.”
― Amy Daws, One Moment Please

“What was it about this man and his presence?
When Thomas touched her, the dance took on a new quality it had not had with William.

“But that I know love is begun by time,
And that I see, in passages of proof,
Time qualifies the spark and fire of it.
There lives within the very flame of love
A kind of wick or snuff that will abate it,
And nothing is at a like goodness still;
For goodness, growing to a pleurisy,
Dies in his own too-much. That we would do
We should do when we would. For this 'would' changes,
And hath abatements and delays as many
As there are tongues, are hands, are accidents.
And then this 'should' is like a spendthrift sigh,
That hurts by easing.”
― William Shakespeare, Hamlet
