Favorite passages from books

I have an idea. Well, I suppose I always have ideas Juokiasi
Maybe we could write some sayings and quatations from books that we like and that have made us think of something or taught us something?
Well, here are some passages i like Gerai

A new world has come into being which is yours and mine. There will always be a place where we can be together. I need love, I need more people to love, I need you to love. Of cause I want you to love me back, but even that is less important, and what we do isn’t important at all. Just holding your hand is marvelous and makes my blood move again. Things are happening at last, I am developing, I am changing, think of all that’s happened since yesterday. I’ve been dead for years and unhappy and terribly secretive. Loving Arnold seemed like being in a box, and now I am out of the box. Do you know, I think quite accidentally we may have happened upon the key to perfect happiness. We’ll each have a resource, we’ll have each other, it will be an eternal bond, like a religious vow, it will save us, if only you will let me love you.
Iris Murdoch – The Black Prince

Of course, the mind of the lover abhors accident. 'I wonder by my troth what thou and I did till we loved’ is a question intimate to his amazement. My love for Julian must have been figured before the world began. Surely, it was lovers who discovered astrology. Nothing less than the great chamber of the stars could be large and steady enough to be context, origin and guarantee of something so eternal. I realized now that my whole life had been determinedly traveling towards this moment. This was a predestined collision. But it had not only just happened, it had happened ages ago, it was of the stuff of the original formation of earth and sky. When God said 'Let there be light’, this love was made. It had no history. Yet, to my awakening consciousness of it had a history of bottomless fascination.
