More on Desire
“I want in fact more of you. In my mind I am dressing you with light; I am wrapping you up in blankets of complete acceptance and then I give myself to you. I long for you; I who usually long without longing, as though I am unconscious and absorbed in neutrality and apathy, really, utterly long for every bit of you.”
“We never desire strongly, what we desire rationally.”
“As long as the wrong feels right - it's like I'm in flight.”
