"I am grateful to have been loved and to be loved now and to be 
able to love, because that liberates. Love liberates. It doesn't just 
hold - that's ego. Love liberates. It doesn't bind. Love says..."I love
you. I love you if you're in China. I love you if you're across town.
I love you if you're in Harlem. I love you. I would like to be near
you. I'd like to have your arms around me. I'd like to hear your
voice in my ear. But that's not possible now, so I love you. Go." -
Maya Angelou
