Who is he who will affirm that there must be a web of flesh and bone to hold the shape of love?

Beyond (1933)

They say love dies between two people. That's wrong. It doesn't die. It just leaves you, goes away, if you are not good enough, worthy enough. It doesn't die; you're the one that dies.

The Wild Palms [If I Forget Thee, Jerusalem (1939)
