Another Quote

" 'Damned, destroyed, irreovcably corrupted,' Illidge went on...

It was true, Walter was thinking. She was all that people enviously or dispprovingly called her, and yet the most exquisite and marvellous of beings., Knoxing all, he could listen to anything that might be said about her. And the more atrocious the words the more desperately he loved her. Credo quia absurdum. Amo quia turpe, quia indignum. . . .

'A perfect imitation of a savage or an animal.' The words were true and an excruciation ; but he loved her all the more because of the torment and because of the odious truth. "
Aldous Huxley, Pointer Counter Point (pg. 75)

Basically, this quote represents how I feel about stuff - it's lovely, but very sad.

I'm not in a mood to say much more...
