She puts her hands on either side of my face, and the room falls away. I have never gotten so lost in a kiss before. And then, the space between us explodes. My heart keeps missing beats and my hands cannot bring her close enough to me. I taste her and realize I have been starving. I have loved before, but it didn't feel like this.I have kissed before, but it didn't burn me alive. Maybe it lasts a minute, and maybe it's an hour.

G. C. (Georg Christoph) Lichtenb

We believe that to err is human. To blame it on someone else is politics.

Hubert H. Humphrey

Analysis does not set out to make pathological reactions impossible, but to give the patient's ego freedom to decide one way or another.

I'm one of those writers who tends to be really good at making outlines and sticking to them. I'm very good at doing that, but I don't like it. It sort of takes a lot of the fun out.
