“It was then that Brown took his revenge upon the world which, after twenty years of contemptuous and reckless bullying, refused him the tribute of a common robber’s success. It was an act of cold-blooded ferocity, and it consoled him on his deathbed like a memory of an indomitable defiance. . . . Thus Brown balanced his account with the evil fortune. Notice that even in this awful outbreak there is a superiority as of a man who carries right—the abstract thing—within the envelope of his common desires. It was not a vulgar and treacherous massacre; it was a lesson, a retribution—a demonstration of some obscure and awful attribute of our nature which, I am afraid, is not so very far under the surface as we like to think.”

“If only, it were written on men’s faces how they would
eventually be, things could work. Relationships would thrive. But
my darling, only time is the real deal and the answer to one’s
integrity. Time reveals one’s allegiance. People are, who they are.
Their intentions, however, either get revealed or change over a
period of time. Hard truth!”

“Listen, I am your mother, nonetheless, I am saying this to
you. And these may not have been the wisest two cents in our
times, but perhaps, are in today’s times—love, you take your time
to get married, no rush. Know a guy, well, very well, before you
engineer lofty dreams in your head and heart, and take the big
step. I do not care about the world; I care about my daughter and
her heart more than anything else.”

“I look at my much in love parents, and their cutest ever tiffs.
How they get back to talking because they cannot just, not talk, to
each other, for too long. They sulk, and talk, but talk. Never a day
without talking. Such, is how love should be. I look at them and
my cup runneth over!”

“Parents’ love is not conscious, rather it is ethereally organic.
Parents’ love is not seasonal. Their love is a voluntary decision to
be with their offspring, no matter what. Their love does not need
answers, confirmation, validation, or acceptance. It thrives on its
own and overflows like the purest waters from the mountains,
irrespective of what it may have to cascade through. The deepest
cockles of my heart reverberate with their love and keep me on the
go.”

We like it together and we just know that we shall be together, for
life.”

courage, and the hope!”

“To say out loud, the love we have in us for the one we have it

becomes enervating to breathe.”

nanoscopic things. With time, time tells you. Until then, you love
with all your true heart. Be honest, to yourself and to your love.
Never lie—it goes against the grain of love, to lie in love. Love
him and let him love you. But most of all, talk and understand
each other!”

“Food is over-rated when it comes to love. It is
not the way to live in someone’s heart. Your oxytocin hormones
are not the answer to it either. These are vital elements, but you
dwell in someone’s heart with communication. Love thrives on
the gospel truth of communication. Everything else shall wane and
wither away with time. But, if true communication, is held all
through by lovers, it shall make the two, walk hand in hand,
together till the end!”
