Love is not a consequence. Love is not a choice. Love is a thirst - a need as vital to the soul as water is to the body. Love is a precious draft that not only soothes a parched throat but also vitalizes a man. It fortifies him enough that he is willing to slay dragons for the woman who offers it. Take that draft of love from me, and I will shrivel to dust. To take it form a man dying of thirst and give it to another while he watches is a cruelty I never thought you capable of.
