“It started to rain suddenly and ferociously as they pulled up in front of Rose’s house. A mist covered the truck. It was as if a fire hose had opened up on the dusty, dry earthen roads. The smell of moist earth and damp, pungent flowering trees gave off the last bit of heat from the former Carolina summer sun of a few minutes ago. Now cooled suddenly by the rainwater, an immediate fog to rose off the hot metal of the truck and the soil. It was impossible to see more than a few feet in the formidable rain and sudden fog.
Rose pulled Carmen to her and wrapped herself around her, one hand playing around through her T as she kissed her, one hand pushing gently at her pants.”
― Cassandra Barnes, Secret Love

“Touching her fingers, touching skin to skin. Her mouth, her breath, the shape of her flushed face. A tender hand on a naked waist, exploring the new feelings. The inner-soul scent of her hair, burying your mind in it. Inside of me, always inside of me. Memorizing the feelings and perfumes. Something one can keep. Carmen thought, Trust�� Something growing. Something true. Something reaching out.”
― Cassandra Barnes, Secret Love

“Settle into kissing Ambrose as soon as possible. You'll enjoy it very much, and you'll only have time for so many kisses.”
― Eliot Schrefer, The Darkness Outside Us

“Nasze życie rodzinne,prawo naszych domów,nie przypomina ani trochę waszych domów.Kochamy się,ale jest to miłość bez miłości”

“When all Americans are treated as equal, no matter who they are or whom they love, we are all more free.”
― Barack Obama

“He wanted me to know he thought I was getting away with something wrong. I thought about the time Billy was sick and said he wanted strawberries. How Paul asked him, "Do you want them cold or room temperature? Cooked down or raw? Narrow it down, because whatever you want, I'll get it for you." Anything Billy wanted, Paul got, whatever it took. And this pathetic excuse of a man had no idea what that kind of devotion meant, and he didn't deserve an answer. The denial of real love-- *that* was the perversion.”
― Ruth Coker Burks, All The Young Men

“In the end and in the beginning, there was only love. But more, obviously...intelligence, wit, laughter, touch, wisdom, strength...so much more. ”
― Cassandra Barnes, Secret Love

“His hands were magnets—shifting polarities—drawn and repelled to the unknown parts of another man's body.”
― Cory Ingram, Paradise

“- Eu sabia que tinhas lido o Simpósio durante as férias -, [Clive] disse em voz baixa.
Maurice sentiu-se apreensivo.
- Compreendes então...sem que eu precise de dizer mais.
- O que é que queres dizer?
Durham não podia esperar. Estavam rodeados de pessoas mas, com um olhar que se tornou de um azul intenso, segredou: - Amo-te.

p.67, MAURICE, E.M. FORSTER

“I knew you read the Symposium in the vac," he said in a low voice.
Maurice felt uneasy.
"Then you understand - without me saying more - "
"How do you mean?"
Durham could not wait. People were all around them, but with eyes that had gone intensely blue he whispered, "I love you.”
― E.M. Forster, Maurice

“I want to be the only thing touching him. I want to be the only thing that touches him ever again. I will be envious of every shirt he ever wears, the cuffs of his coats, the trousers going soft with wear where they rub his inner thighs. Every snowflake that ever falls upon his lips, every piece of bread upon his tongue. I want to breathe him, let him fill up my chest until my ribs strain and I break open like ripe fruit beneath a paring knife. I would be raw. I would freckle and blister in the sun. I would teach my body to regrow my heart each time I gave it to him, over and over and over again. Heart after heart after heart—every one of them his.”
― Mackenzi Lee, The Gentleman’s Guide to Getting Lucky

“I want to make Romeo
jealous. I want the dead
lovers of the world to
hear our laughter,
and grow sad.”
― Oscar Wilde, The Picture of Dorian Gray

“Lembra quando você dizia que às vezes 1+1 pode ser 1? Eu te entendo agora. Mas somos menos que um. Somos uma equação de divisões e saldos negativos.”
― Augusto Alvarenga, 1+1: A matemática do amor

“I love you, Sebastian Volkov ... Even on the days you don’t love yourself.”
― Lissa Kasey, Witch Minion

“Today he smells like motor oil. It's sort of exotic-erotic.”
― Eliot Schrefer, The Darkness Outside Us

“My heart surges for reasons beyond radio transmissions, but before I can figure out just what I'm feeling, what I discovered about my feeling for him as I watched him spacewalk, he's sitting cross-legged on the floor again, knees against mine, in his matching Dimokratia jumpsuit.”
― Eliot Schrefer

“I'm waiting for Kodiak in his workshop, wearing - deliciously enough - one of his jumpsuits. The sleeves hang to the middle of my fingers. We have only dry clothes shampoo on the ship, so this shirt smells perfectly clean and also like months of built-up Kodiak scent, of engines and sweat and lemongrass and bleach. I'm draped in the deepest and freshest version of him.”
― Eliot Schrefer, The Darkness Outside Us

“He laughs uncertainly, putting a hand to his chest.

It doesn’t feel like ba-dump.

It feels like Har-per.”
― Addison Lane, Blackpines: The Antlers Witch: The Girl Who Grew Antlers

“Was it good? The first time we kissed?��

Mason snorts. “I’m pretty sure no one’s ever had a better first kiss.”
― Addison Lane, Blackpines: The Antlers Witch: The Witch's Judgment

“He knows Rio better than he knows his own hands. They were something like something for that long.”
― Addison Lane, Blackpines: The Magpie Witch: The North Star in Eclipse

“Don't let ignorance win," said Ms. Stevenson. "Let love.”
― Nancy Garden, Annie on My Mind

“I dreamed in a dream of a city where all the men were like brothers,
O I saw them tenderly love each other - I often saw them, in numbers, walking hand in hand;
I dreamed that was a city of robust friends - Nothing was greater there than manly love - it led the rest,
It was seen every hour in the actions of the men of that city, and in all their looks and words.-”
― Walt Witman

“But it struck me that people may be deeply uncomfortable with two lovers�� attendant vulnerability. Love brings loss to mind.”
― Jeremy Atherton Lin, Deep House

“I understood clearly through those days that I was living a feeling. And when I remember now, I am still living that; it has been folded into me and continues to resonate. On some level, we knew then that we were creating this feeling to be taken along from then on.”
― Jeremy Atherton Lin, Deep House

“I don't necessarily find such pragmatism unromantic. It's rather lovely to think of someone willing to do the admin with you.”
― Jeremy Atherton Lin, Deep House: The Gayest Love Story Ever Told

“So, imagine we're all born with a set of feelings. Some are broader or deeper than others, but for everyone, there's that ground floor, a bottom crust of the pie. That's the maximum depth of feeling you've ever experienced. And then, the worst thing happens to you. The very worst thing that could have happened. The thing you had nightmares about as a child, and you thought, it's all right because that thing will happen to me when I'm older and wiser, and I'll have telt so many feelings by then that this one worst feeling, the worst possible feeling won't seem so terrible.
*But it happens to you when you're young. It happens when your brain isn't even fully done cooking when you've barely experienced anything, really. The worst thing is one of the first big things that ever happens to you in your life. It happens to you, and it goes all the way down to the bottom of what you know how to feel, and it rips it open and carves out this chasm down below to make room. And because you were so young, and because it was one of the first big things to happen in your lite, you'll always carry it inside you. Every time something terrible happens to you from then on, it doesn't just stop at the bottom - it goes all the way down." She reaches across the tiny tea table and the sad little pile of water crackers and touches the back of Alex's hand
"Do you understand?" she asks him, looking right into his eyes. "You need to understand this to be with Henry. He is the most loving, nurturing, selfless person you could hope to meet, but there is a sadness and a hurt in him that is tremendous, and you may very well never truly understand it, but you need to love it as much as you love the rest of him, because thare him. That is him, part and parce. And he is prepared to live it all to you, which is far more than I ever, in a thousand years, thought I would see him do.”
