of chafing my heart against
the want of you;
of squeezing it into little inkdrops,
And posting it."

-- Master Chef Suvir Saran
"I am come into my garden, my sister, my spouse: I have gathered my myrrh with my spice; I have eaten my honeycomb with my honey; I have drunk my wine with my milk: eat, O friends; drink, yea, drink abundantly, O beloved."
--Song of Solomon 5:1
"Like all great travellers, I have seen more than I remember, and I remember more than I have seen."

"I had to fall backward in time, tumbling smugly toward the one era in my life when I was totally happy, when perfection was the order of the universe. I went to the hour that was my pole star, my center, my altar. I went to the moment every man who ever lived dreams of, that one instant when all wishes and fantasies have the potential to come true and you have only to recognize that and grab it within that heartbeat to make your life complete."
--Glen Cook, "Bleak Seasons"
