Nessuno osa dire addio all'abitudine. Molti suicidi si sono fermati sulla soglia della morte per il ricordo del caffè dove vanno tutte le sere a giocare la loro partita a domino.
Honoré de Balzac, da "Il cugino Pons", 1847

I am nearly mad about you, as much as one can be mad: I cannot bring together two ideas that you do not interpose yourself between them. I can no longer think of nothing but you. In spite of myself, my imagination carries me to you. I grasp you, I kiss you, I caress you, a thousand of the most amorous caresses take possession of me. As for my heart, there you will always be — very much so. I have a delicious sense of you there. But my God, what is to become of me, if you have deprived me of my reason? This is a monomania which, this morning, terrifies me. 
Honoré de Balzac, from 'The 50 Greatest Love Letters of All Time', ed. David H. Lowenherz

How much can you change and get away with it, before you turn into someone else, before it's some kind of murder?

Nessun uomo ha indovinato mai il modo di rivolgere un amichevole consiglio a una donna, tanto meno alla propria (Honoré de Balzac, Piccole miserie della vita coniugale).
