THANKS

To write is to be alone, inhabited by many people. But as soon as the text is finished, the future opens up to other people—the ones in real life. Those who prove willing to support you, advise you, encourage you, and help you live a few moments of life worthy of the most beautiful novel.

No amount of water can quench love, torrents cannot drown it.

—Song of Solomon
