All that was needed was shrewd questioning...to conclude once again that the symptoms of love were the same as those of cholera.” ― Gabriel García Márquez

Love takes no pleasure in other people's sins, but delights in truth. It is always ready to excuse, to trust, to hope, and to endure whatever comes."
