Irisul Îndrăgostit

"There was no doubt about the fact of her being in love with Tim, and Tim being in love with her. This was the real, the indubitable and authoritative Eros: that unmistakable seismic shock, the total concentration of everything into one necessary being, mysterious, uncanny, unique, one of the strangest phenomenon of the world (...) she loved Tim with passion, with tenderness, with laughter and tears, with all the accumulated intelligent forces of her being" - from Nuns and Soldiers by Iris Murdoch.
