“If the portraits of our absent friends are pleasant to us, which renew our memory of them and relieve our regret for their absence by a false and empty consolation, how much more pleasant are letters which bring us the written characters of the absent friend.”
Héloïse d'Argenteuil, The Letters of Abélard and Héloïse

“[I]t is not by being richer or more powerful that a man becomes better; one is a matter of fortune, the other of virtue. Nor should she deem herself other than venal who weds a rich man rather than a poor, and desires more things in her husband than himself. Assuredly, whomsoever this concupiscence leads into marriage deserves payment rather than affection.”
±áé±ô´Çï²õ±ð, The Letters of Abélard and Héloïse

“Would that thy love, beloved, had less trust in me, that it might be more anxious!”
±áé±ô´Çï²õ±ð, The Letters of Abélard and Héloïse
