#mort

Il parvint à la reconnaitre au milieu du tumulte et, à travers les larmes de sa douleur irrémédiable de mourir sans elle, la regarda une dernière fois, pour toujours et à jamais, avec les yeux les plus lumineux, les plus tristes et les plus reconnaissants qu'elle lui eut vus en un demi-siècle de vie commune, et il réussit à lui dire dans un dernier souffle: << Dieu seul sait combien je t'ai aimée >> ↗

Elle avait supplié Dieu de lui concéder au moins un instant afin qu'il ne s'en allât pas sans savoir combien elle l'avait aimé par-delà leurs doutes à tous les deux, et senti un désir irrésistible de recommencer sa vie avec lui depuis le début afin qu'ils pussent se dire tout ce qu'autrefois ils avaient peut-être mal fait. ↗

You took angel blood. You took a small dose, so the change on your body is small, but...I can see from your face that you're changing. With injections from Icoru, you'll become a monster. You'll become immortal...Even though, you'll be no longer human. Already, you're becoming a monster. How sad. You have but one life to live, and you throw it away on this. ↗

Long Distance training can be a positive & constructive form of selfishness. After all, once you're at the starting line, you're there by yourself. No one can run a single step for you. No one can jump in & help you. No one but you can make the decisions about what to do to keep going. It's all up to you. ↗

But they love each other. Isn't that what love means? That you're supposed to be there for the other person to turn to, no matter what? ↗

We must not listen to those who advise us 'being men to think human thoughts, and being mortal to think mortal thoughts' but must put on immortality as much as possible and strain every nerve to live according to that best part of us, which, being small in bulk, yet much more in its power and honour surpasses all else. ↗
