ELIZABETH ASHLEY
The San Francisco Chronicle, 1982
There is a love that begins in the head, and goes down to the heart, and
grows slowly; but it lasts till death, and asks less than it gives. There
is another love, that blots out wisdom, that is sweet with the sweetness
of life and hitter with the bitterness of death, lasting for an hour, but
it is worth having lived a whole life for that hour.
