This is My Truth, Tell Me Yours

What the eyes don’t see, the heart doesn’t grieve over.

"As it is, I can’t settle, I want someone who is fierce and will love me until death and know that love is as strong as death, and be on my side for ever and ever. I want someone who will destroy and be destroyed by me. There are many forms of love and affection, some people can spend their whole lives together without knowing each other’s names. Naming is a difficult and time consuming process; it concerns essences, and it means power. But on the wild nights who can call you home? Only the one who knows your name." - Jeanette Winterson, Oranges are Not the Only Fruit
