Cornelia Funke Quote
True love, selfless and deep as the oceans in their most fathomless depths. Orlando let the glove run along the thread, which glistened like a ray of sunlight. But I fear this one is not meant for me. This kind of thread is not spun in mere days.He let his hand drop, and the gold disappeared as though it really had been nothing but a ray of sunlight. The Golden Yarn… or the inseverable bond, as it is also called. As inseverable as the threads of fate. And there is only one who can spin them and who can cut them.
