Diana Gabaldon Quote

Jamie. I want you to mark me.What? he said, startled.The tiny sgian dhu he carried in his stocking was lying within reach, its handle of carved staghorn darkagainst the piled clothing. I reached for it and handed it to him.Cut me, I said urgently. Deep enough to leave a scar. I want to take away your touch with me, tohave something of you that will stay with me always. I don't care if it hurts; nothing could hurt more thanleaving you. At least when I touch it, wherever I am, I can feel your touch on me.
