William Goldman Quote

When I left you, he whispered, you were already more beautiful than anything Idared to dream. In our years apart, my imaginings did their best to improve on your perfection. At night,your face was forever behind my eyes. And now I see that that vision who kept me company in myloneliness was a hag compared to the beauty now before me.
