A ROOM WITH A VIEW (1985)
Be his wife. He is already part of you. Though you never see him again, or forget his very name, George will work in your thoughts till you die. It isn’t possible to love and to part. You will wish that it was. You can transmute love, ignore it, muddle it, but you can never pull it out of you. I know by experience that the poets are right: love is eternal. When I think what life is, and how seldom love is answered by love—Marry him; it is one of the moments for which the world was made. - E. M. Forster
