Only I had dry eyes, a dry heart.

I was the last of the four Dresden dolls. Only me... and I didn't want to be here.

All right, Chris, you've given me a breather. I'm prepared foranything.And thank you for saying all of that, and for loving me, for youhaven't gone unloved, or unadmired, yourself." I kissed him quickly onthe lips, and told him to go on, to hit me with his knockout blow."Really, Chris, I know you must have something perfectly awful to tellme-so out with it. Keep holding me as you tell me, and I can standanything you have to say.

And thank you for saying all of that, and for loving me, for you haven't gone unloved, or unadmired, yourself.

We had been separated by time and distance and events so long, it was as if we had to get to know each other again, but if it was possible to fall in love with the same person twice, I did.

Love, in short is the most dangerous emotion human can experience

Fool! Never wait on a man! Let him wait on himself!
