Edna Saint Vincent Millay

“Love me, please, I love you; I can bear to be your friend. So ask of me anything ... I am not a tentative person. Whatever I do, I give up my whole self to it.”

“If I ever said in grief or pride, I tired of honest things, I lied.”

“Down you mongrel, Death! Back into your kennel!”

“Love me, please; I love you; I can bear to be your friend. So ask of me anything ... I am not a tentative person. Whatever I do, I give up my whole self to it.”

“The soul can split the sky in two, and let the face of God shine through.”

“Into the darkness they go, the wise and the lovely.”
