Quotes by Sheldon Costa  (?)
Quotes are added by the Goodreads community and are not verified by Goodreads. (Learn more)

“Romantic love was a clear-cut institution, bolstered by orthodoxy and ritual. When a man lost his wife, it was expected that his world would unravel. But friendship… friendship was a wilderness with no guide. There were no courting rituals one might follow to pursue it, and little sympathy for the gut-wrenching horror of its loss.”
