“As Mr Darcy walked off, Elizabeth felt her blood turn cold. She had never in her life been so insulted. The warrior code demanded she avenge her honour. Elizabeth reached down her ankle, taking care not to draw attention. There, her hand met the dagger concealed beneath her dress. She meant to follow this proud Mr Darcy outside and open his throat.”

Eternal sunshine of the spotless mind!
Each pray’r accepted, and each wish resign’d;” —Alexander Pope

“Quando o outro parte você é apagado do mapa. Nem sua palavra sobrevive. Os risos e os diálogos que esquadrinhavam o mundo foram banidos para o centro da terra, onde não possam ser lembrados. O ar está cheio de frases interrompidas que esvoaçam sem ter onde pousar. Para quem se foi, você é uma cápsula vazia, sem interesse de qualquer espécie. Pode ser trocado, vendido, dado ou até emprestado ao primeiro passante que queira recolher as sobras do desastre. Para todos os efeitos, você está morto, meu bem.”
—Myriam Campello
“It was awful, he cried, awful, awful!
Still, the sun was hot. Still, one got over things.
Still, life had a way of adding day to day.” —Virginia Woolf

“‘Dearest, I feel certain I am going mad again. I feel we can’t go through another of those terrible times. And I shan’t recover this time. I begin to hear voices, and I can’t concentrate. So I am doing what seems the best thing to do. You have given me the greatest possible happiness. You have been in every way all that anyone could be. I don’t think two people could have been happier till this terrible disease came. I can’t fight any longer. I know that I am spoiling your life, that without me you could work. And you will I know. You see I can’t even write this properly. I can’t read. What I want to say is I owe all the happiness of my life to you. You have been entirely patient with me and incredibly good. I want to say that - everybody knows it. If anybody could have saved me it would have been you. Everything has gone from me but the certainty of your goodness. I can’t go on spoiling your life any longer.
I don’t think two people could have been happier than we have been.” —V.

“A thing of beauty is a joy for ever:
Its loveliness increases; it will never
Pass into nothingness; but still will keep
A bower quiet for us, and a sleep
Full of sweet dreams, and health, and quiet breathing” —
Keats

“Eu sinto que você é a pessoa mais parecida comigo que eu conheço, só que do lado do avesso.”
