• "love, they say, enslaves and passion is a demon and many have been lost for love. i know this is true, but i know too that without love we grope the tunnels of our lives and never see the sun. when i fell in love it was as though i looked into a mirror for the first time and saw myself. i lifted my hand in wonderment and felt my cheeks, my neck. this was me. and when i had looked at myself and grown accustomed to who i was, i was not afraid to hate parts of me because i wanted to be worthy of the mirror bearer."

  if they only owned love, shown love, grown love, like this before
  if they only knew love, true love, to love, like this before
  if they only gave love, saved love, brave love, like this before
  if they only called love, love love, called love, like this before
  if they'd only showed love, they owed love, owed love, like this before
  if they only showed love, they owed love, owed love, like this before
  if they only knew love, true love, to love, like this before
  if they only gave love, saved love, brave love, like this before
  if they only showed love, they owed love, they owed love, like this before
  
  la la la la la...
  
  like this before
  if they ever showed love, they owed love, they owed love, they owed love
  if they ever showed love, they owed love, they owed love, like this before
  
  oh, oh, oh, oh, yeah
  la la la la la...
  
  if they only claimed love, claimed love, claimed love
  they maintained love
  instead they drained love, stained love
  they didn't control love, my soul loves a whole love, like this before
  received the same love
  if they didn't regret love, forget love, say they never met love
  if they will love, don't kill love, just be still love.
• şans eseri elime geçen ve bana uzun yolculuğumda arkadaşlık eden harika kitap. bir yerinde der ki; "happy is an adult word. you don't ask a child about happy, you see it. they are or they are not. adults talk about being happy because largely they are not."
