QUOTE
“Perhaps 50% of our friends and relatives would tell you in all honest conviction that my drinking drove Zelda insane — the other half would assure you that her insanity drove me to drink. Neither judgement would mean anything… these two classes (of friends and relatives) would be equally unanimous in saying that each of us would be well rid of the other — in full face of the irony that we have never been so desperately in love with each other in our lives. Liquor on my breath is sweet to her. I cherish her most extravagant hallucinations.“

- F. Scott Fitzgerald in a letter to Zelda’s Dr.

I think I’ve posted this before.  I love this quote, and seems appropriate today if you have found your other half.
