    you suspect that if the universe can create someone as unique as you, the universe can also create someone for you.

I'm seriously a little teary reading that. It's a beautiful thing.

    Why it was that upon this beautiful feminine tissue, sensitive as a gossamer, and practically blank as snow as yet, there should have been traced such a coarse pattern as it was doomed to receive; why so often the coarse appropriates the finer thus, the wrong man the woman, the wrong woman the man, many thousand years of analytical philosophy have failed to explain to our sense of order.
