“During that long terrible ride to Munich, I finally swallowed the bitter pill of my lover's rejection and poisoned myself with it.

“You know, we have moments of passion when we are in pain. And then of course the moment ends, and with it the passion and the pain, and we forgive and forget. But I think that every time you hurt somebody that you care for, a crack appears in your relationship, a little weakening - and it stays there, dangerous, waiting for the next opportunity to open up and destroy everything.”
-- Edith Hahn Beer -
“I am like Dante, I walk through hell, but I am not burning.”
