William Shakespeare
I have you. A lover and a friend. You are everything I need. You are the sun, the air I breathe. Without you, life wouldn't be the same. Please don't ever go away. And if you go, then don't forget to take me with you.
Basia
I think we dream so we don't have to be away from one another. If we're in each other's dreams, we'll always be together.
Hobbes
