If you don`t cling they still change, but then there is no frustration because you were perfectly aware that they are bound to change. This is how things are, this is the suchness of life.

The iron fist of the real, inside the velvet glove of airy mathematics.

Jealousy, that most demeaning and debilitating of emotions. Jealousy, which can double the strength of the love upon which it is based, but whilst doubling it, warp and pervert it, untill it is no longer recognizable as the thing of beauty it once was. Jealous love is no more like true love than Mr Hyde was like Dr Jekyll or a stagnant swamp is like a freshwater lake.

All this time…ever since I sold my soul, I’ve been clinging to this idea that there is something pure and decent out there.

Erik wouldn’t have died. Andrea Mortensen wouldn’t be dying.” -Georgina to Carter
