Additional quotes by Leonard Cohen

It was only when you walked away I saw you had the perfect ass. Forgive me for not falling in love with your face or your conversation.

there's no forsaking what you love
no existential leap
as witnessed here in time and blood
a thousand kisses deep

My love is blonde and ancient
I met her by the sea
she was putting things together
and she needed some of me
