For they had lived together long enough to know that love was always love, anytime and anyplace, but it was more solid the closer it came to death.
Oprah Winfrey
— American talk show host, television producer, actress, author, and philanthropistEvery day, passion speaks to us through our feelings.

And if no one knows it, then there are places that do. People like you enrich the dreams of the worlds, and it is dreams that create history. People like you are unknowing transformers of things, protected by your own fairy-tale, by love.

— British horticulturist and journalistI am made for autumn. Summer and I have a fickle relationship, but everything about autumn is perfect to me. Woolly jumpers, Wellington boot, scarves, thin first, then thick, socks. The low slanting light, the crisp mornings, the chill in my fingers, those last warm sunny days before the rain and the wind. Her moody hues and subdued palate punctuated every now and again by a brilliant orange, scarlet or copper goodbye. She is my true love.
