If I have refused to risk, I have in the self-same decision refused to love. And if indeed I have refused to love, tragically I have refused to live. And when will I realize that that in and of itself...
If safety is my goal, living life is not.
(imp. & p. p.) of Diminish
I cannot live without you. For to attempt to do so would be to rob both of us of each other, and that is thievery of the greatest sort.
