"I always thought flowers could only wither by my touch, until I held you."
"Why is it that everyone sees darkness behind those dark eyes, when I can only see freedom in the galaxies underneath?"

"I shall be no unfitting husband for you among the deathless gods, that am own brother to father Zeus. And while you are here, you shall rule all that lives and moves and shall have the greatest rights among the deathless gods: those who defraud you and do not appease your power with offerings, reverently performing rites and paying fit gifts, shall be punished for evermore."
Hades to Persephone, Homer r.360-365
