1 " ...so Leola thought that a modest romance with a hero in embryo could do no harm - might even be a patriotic duty. "
― Robertson Davies , Fifth Business (The Deptford Trilogy, #1)
2 " The women we really love are the women who complete us, who have the qualities we can borrow and so become something nearer to whole men. Just as we complete them, of course; it’s not a one-way thing. Leola and I, when romance was stripped away, were too much alike; our strengths and weaknesses were too nearly the same. Together we would have doubled our gains and our losses, but that isn’t what love is. "
