Different places Quote by Pamela Morsi
““We had different lives. We come from different places." "Surely ye do. And you got different bodies, too. That's what marriage is about, Meggie-gal, making differences intertwine into something whole and new." Meggie didn't want to argue. "He didn't love me, Pa," she said. "I'll believe that when I see coons a-taking up farming," the old man answered. He raked his hair with his hands helplessly. "What do ye think love is, Meggie. Do you think it's heart pounding and breath stealing and verse reciting?" he asked. "Yes, ma'am, there is some of that involved, but mostly love is quiet and caring and friendlylike. It's wanting to tell that person something afore you whisper it to another soul. It's not being alone.””

I'll be reading two books at the same time that are totally different [and] then have two stories mix together.” quote by Ali Banisadr](https://sms4smile.com/quotes/img-quotes/f2f/ali-banisadr-34051_book_as-i-work-day-after-day-inspirations-fro_32031.jpg)
