♥ "I dust [your photo] carefully every morning, for to do so gives me the pleasant feeling that I'm caressing you as in the old days. I even touch your nose with mine to recapture the electric current that used to flush through my blood whenever I did so." —Nelson Mandela to his wife, Winnie
♥ "What cannot letters inspire? They have souls; they can speak; they have in them all that force which expresses the transports of the heart...."—Héloïse to Abelard
♥ "I want to do things so wild with you that I don't know how to say them." —Anaïs Nin to Henry Miller
♥ "Open your life wide, and take me in forever. I will never be tired—I will never be noisy when you want to be still...nobody else will see me, but you—but that is enough—I shall not want any more."—Emily Dickinson to an unknown recipient
♥ "Out of the depths of my happy heart wells a great tide of love and prayer for this priceless treasure that is confided to my lifelong keeping. You cannot see its waves as they flow toward you, darling, but in these lines you will hear...the distant beating of its surf." —Mark Twain to Olivia Langdon
