There's a song lyric that I forget about but every time I listen to the song in question it stops me cold all over again:

  I'm in love with the way you're in love with the night
And this is from the last paragraph of a short story by Fyodor Dostoevsky:

    So may the sky lie cloudless over you, and your smile be bright and carefree; be blessed for the moment of bliss and happiness you gave to another heart, a lonely and a grateful one. … My God, a moment of bliss. Why, isn’t that enough for a whole lifetime?
