Michael Tobert
“Secrets,’ she replied, casting my trousers aside, ‘are difficult things. Not precise. Not always the same for the one who tells as for the one who receives. They make demands. They may cause you to ask yourself, “Am I worthy?”’ At which, as if to illustrate the point, she removed her bra and watched me follow the lines of her magnificent form with my eyes.”
Michael Tobert, Karna's Wheel

Abigail Adams
“My bursting heart must find vent at my pen.”
Abigail Adams
