"I have for the first time found what I can truly loveâ€“I have found you. You are my sympathyâ€“my better selfâ€“my good angelâ€“I am bound to you with a strong attachment. I think you good, gifted, lovely: a fervent, a solemn passion is conceived in my heart; it leans to you, draws you to my centre and spring of life, wrap my existence about youâ€“and, kindling in pure, powerful flame, fuses you and me in one."

“I'm pretty good at inventing phrases - you know, the sort of words that suddenly make you jump, almost as though you'd sat on a pin, they seem so new and exciting even though they're about something hypnopaedically* obvious.
