In Fire and Hemlock Diana Wynn Jones says,
For you , the only way to behave well was to behave badly. For me, the only way to win was to lose. You weren’t to know me, and I wasn’t to remember you.
The paradox of this captured me, so I copied it down to ponder. The rest of this quote talks about letting go being the only real way to love someone.
What does it mean to you?
