“Beatrice, I will love you if I never see you again, and I will love you if I see you every Tuesday. I will love you as the iceberg loves the ship, and I will love you as the passengers love the lifeboat, and as the battlefield loves young men, and as peppermints love your allergies. I will love you as we grow older, which just happened and happened again, and will continue to happen. I will love you until every fire has been extinguished and every home rebuilt, and every code and heart has been broken. I will love you if you marry someone else, and I will love you if you have a child, or two children, or three. Seems like a good number. I love you, Beatrice. I always will.”

Lemony Snicket, A Series of Unfortunate Events

In which I have never related more to a character than I have to Lemony and his tragic, everlasting love for Beatrice.

I, sir, am a wizard, and I break more natural laws before breakfast than of which you are even aware.” –Rich Burlew (Vaarsuvius: Order of the Stick: On The Origin of PCs)
