A sweet female, I hope her brothers soon realize she has strength enough of her own to overcome. - Gaea

Inspiration Quotes
Lancelot from Mists of Avalon: Would it not be a comfort, just for a time, to believe that we create our own Heavens, and our own Hells?
Helena from Midsummer Nights Dream:
Call you me fair? that fair again unsay.
Demetrius loves your fair: O happy fair!
Your eyes are lode-stars! and your tongue's sweet air
More tuneable than lark to shepherd's ear,
When wheat is green, when hawthorn buds appear.
Sickness is catching: O! were favour so,
Yours would I catch, fair Hermia, ere I go;
My ear should catch your voice, my eye your eye,
My tongue should catch your tongue's sweet melody.
Were the world mine, Demetrius being bated,
The rest I'd give to be to you translated.
O! teach me how you look, and with what art
You sway the motion of Demetrius' heart.
