Alexandra Adornetto Quotes

Humans Were So Preoccupied With Love. They Were All Desperate To Form An Attachment To One Person They Could Refer To As Their Other Half. It Seemed From My Reading Of Literature That Being In Love Meant Becoming The Beloveds Entire World. The Rest Of The Universe Paled Into Insignificance Compared To The Lovers. When They Were Separated, Each Fell Into A Melancholy State, And Only When They Were Reunited Did Their Hearts Start Beating Again. Only When They Were Together Could Really See The Colors Of The World. When They Were Apart, That Color Leached Away, Leaving Everything A Hazy Gray. I Lay In Bed, Wondering About The Intensity Of This Emotion That Was So Irrational And So Irrefutably Human. What If A Persons Face Was So Sacred To You It Was Permanently Inscribed In Your Memory? What If Their Smell And Touch Were Dearer To You Than Life Itself?
