• When it all come down to it, the thing that matters most in a relationship is principles [...] We have the same idea what’s right and what’s wrong, and that’s got us through any number of things.

• My own lov'd light,
  That very soft and solemn spirit worships,
  That lovers love so well--strange joy is thine,
  Whose influence o'er all tides of soul hath power,
  Who lend'st thy light to rapture and despair;
  The glow of hope and wan hue of sick fancy
  Alike reflect thy rays: alike thou lightest
  The path of meeting or of parting love--
  Alike on mingling or on breaking hearts
  Thou smil'st in throned beauty!

  Charles Robert Maturin
