“To long a sacrifice can make a stone of a heart”
― William Butler Yeats

“These violent delights have violent ends
And in their triumph die, like fire and powder,
Which as they kiss consume. The sweetest honey
Is loathsome in his own deliciousness
And in the taste confounds the appetite.
Therefore love moderately; long love doth so;
Too swift arrives as tardy as too slow.”
― William Shakespeare, Romeo and Juliet

“I became insane, with long intervals of horrible sanity.”
― Edgar Allan Poe

“If you have it [love], you don't need to have anything else, and if you don't have it, it doesn't matter much what else you have.”
― J.M. Barrie
