No, I’m not mistaken

“No, I’m not mistaken. I know you don’t love me. But I’m going to fight for your love. There are some things in life that are worth fighting for to the end…You are worth it.”



Paulo Coelho



“How ravished one could be without ever being touched.”



D. H. Lawrence
(Lady Chatterley’s Lover)



“I don’t regret the things I’ve done, I regret the things I didn’t do when I had the chance.”



Unknown



“When I die, bury me standing, because I’ve spent all my life on my knees.”



An ancient Gipsy saying




“Some impulses are stronger than we are, have proved themselves so throughout the world's history. Is it not rather our ideals of conduct, of Right and Wrong, our ethics, which are unnatural and monstrously distorted? Is society not suffering from a case of the evil eye which sees evil where there is none? Isn't it our moral laws which force me into evasions like the one which you have just found fault with?”



Eugene O’ Neill



“In the next place, when a woman is thus left desolate and void of counsel, she is just like a bag of money or a jewel dropped on the highway, which is a prey to the next corner; if a man of virtue and upright principles happens to find it, he will have it cried, and the owner may come to hear of it again; but how many times shall such a thing fall into hands that will make no scruple of seizing it for their own, to once that it shall come into good hands?”



Daniel Defoe
(Moll Flanders)
