AN AUDIENCE OF ONE

'The public for which masterpieces are intended is not on this earth.' 

Thornton Wilder, The Bridge of San Luis Rey, p.87. 

LOVE IS NEVER EQUALLY MATCHED?

'Now he discovered that secret from which one never quite recovers, that even in the most perfect love one person loves less profoundly than the other. There may be two equally good, equally gifted, equally beautiful, but there may never be two that love one another equally well.' 

Thornton Wilder, The Bridge of San Luis Rey, p.49
