Sacrifice For Love Quotes

“He’d imprisoned himself in this castle to rot. He’d cut off all contact with the outside world. And just when he thought he’d burned all his bridges, this woman—this impossible, sweet, foolish woman—arrived, determined to swim the moat. Breach his defenses. Make a home. Stay.”
― Tessa Dare, Romancing the Duke

“For someone who lives in love, pain is nourishment.”
― Abhijit Naskar, Making Britain Civilized: How to Gain Readmission to The Human Race

“Stuff doesn't matter. That's what they say. I wonder if they've tried losing everything? I left Kerenza with nothing but the clothes I was wearing, and I lost those soon after. I got a ship jumpsuit instead. They say people are more important than stuff. Maybe that's true, though I think there's a reason nobody but Brothers and Sisters renounce their possessions. Even the destitute have something to cling to, right? Your stuff is a series of choices that show who you are. Yeah, I went for the black digiplayer with the skulls on, got a problem with that? Yeah, these are the boots my mom says make me look like I'm in the army. This is the shirt my boyfriend loves, that I have to wear a jacket over when I leave the house. That's the toy turtle my grandma gave me before she died.
All I have now is me. People matter more than stuff?
Well *beep* you, I don't have people. My mother's dead or mad. My father's on Heimdall, which means he's probably dead too. And my stuff might have been a tiny reminder, something to cling to. Something to tell me who I am.
Excuse me for being so ----ing shallow. I want to slam this keyboard against the wall. This keyboard that belongs to the Hypatia. Not mine. Requisitioned. Like my blanket. Like my clothes. Like my life.
So here's the thing. My people are gone. My stuff is gone. Nobody's left who knows me, there's nothing left to say who I am. Everyhing's gone, except one thing. One person. He told me to run, to get out, to spread the word. Byron said the same. I understand why they did. But Ezra was ready to die just to improve my chance of survival one percent more.
Turns out I feel the same way.
Time to go get him. Or die trying.

“Gotta write a letter to you,
If you get a chance, do read it.
Don't know how long I can endure,
But if you get a chance, do read it.

They say, time heals all wounds,
But there is no treatment to my condition.
If you get a chance, come and sit by me,
With you by my side even death is salvation.

The world hails one a pillar, an epitome of strength,
But inside, one battles with apocalypse everyday.
Sipping poison like delicate wine, time after time,
A loveless fakir gets used to be used and thrown away.

Read me or rip me, it is up to you.
So long as the heart beats, I'm waiting for you.”
― Abhijit Naskar, Amor Apocalypse: Canım Sana İhtiyacım

“Let me tell you what is love,
What is it to be enamored in caring!

That is the first sign of love's awakening.”

“It was a tear of joy, but also one of sadness. Joy for her daughter’s freedom, but sadness that she would never see her. I expect the former outweighed the latter, for such was a mother’s love, be she made of flesh or wood. Some things were universal.”
― Daniel Thorman, Calamity at Conclave

“Come delight, come devastation, the aim of love is to love, with or without reciprocation.”
― Abhijit Naskar, The Gentalist: There's No Social Work, Only Family Work

“But her (Mini) priority was to be my emotional anchor, and she happily chose it over her own career.”

“If it is the will of love,
I'll convert a thousand religions.
If it is the will of love,
I'll disown a thousand ancestors.

If it is the will of love,
I'll change a thousand nationalities.
You just command, my sweet,
Love's wish is life's theology.”
― Abhijit Naskar, Amor Apocalypse: Canım Sana İhtiyacım

“The more a being is broken in love,
The more whole a being becomes.
Awareness is born of brokenness,
It's in darkness that insight comes.

It is in darkness that,
heart shines the brightest,
It is darkness that shows the lane.
Don't lose heart, o lover loco,
Everybody can love when happy,
Only a few can love in pain.”
― Abhijit Naskar, Amor Apocalypse: Canım Sana İhtiyacım

“Love bears all and bares all.”
― Abhijit Naskar, Amor Apocalypse: Canım Sana İhtiyacım

except those who love with eyes.”

All else is but lie.
Life's only truth is love,
All else is but death in disguise.”
