From books

“You and I, it’s as though we have been taught to kiss in heaven and sent down to earth together, to see if we know what we were taught.” 
 —Boris Pasternak, Doctor Zhivago“If I were to live a thousand years, I would belong to you for all of them. If we were to live a thousand lives, I would want to make you mine in each one.” 
 —Michelle Hodkin, The Evolution of Mara Dyer“I took a photo of us mid-embrace. When I am old and alone, I will remember that I once held something truly beautiful.” 
 —Joe Dunthorne, Submarine“Yet everything that touches us, me and you,
 takes us together like a violin’s bow,
 which draws one voice out of two separate strings.” 
 —Rainer Maria Rilke, “Love Song”“Your name is a golden bell hung in my heart. I would break my body to pieces to call you once by your name.” 
 —Peter S. Beagle, The Last Unicorn“You gave me a forever within the numbered days, and I’m grateful.” 
 —John Green, The Fault in Our Stars
