Said Softly Quote by Diana Gabaldon
““You carry me with ye, Claire, and ye canna leave me now, no matter what happens. You are mine, always, if ye will it or no, if ye want me or nay. Mine, and I wilna let you go." "No," I said softly, "nor can you leave me." "No,"he said, half-smiling."For I have kept the the last of the vow as well." I could feel the warm breath of his words upon my ear, whispered in the dark. "For I give ye my spirit,'til our life shall be done.””
