As though sensing her heightening alarm, Pinfeathers halted his advance." I can’t help it that I’m susceptible to you, " he whispered. "You know that. It’s just that you’re so...unreal...and so I have to touch you. If only to be certain that I’m not the one who’s dreaming. You see, I hear that sort of thing is going around. Kelly Creagh
About This Quote

This is a love poem by the famous poet Rumi. The idea here is that Pinfeathers doesn’t want to force his relationship with Feathers to come to a halt. He wants it to continue, but he also wants to make sure that Feathers understands that he can’t control himself and that he is often susceptible to her. Pinfeathers must be sure that Feathers knows that he doesn’t always have control of himself and that however powerful she is, she must not let herself get too high on the pedestal she has created for herself.
