I do not know what she was thinking, but I was remembering the years we have lived together, yet never together, and what a waste they have been--of each other, and of love, which is the most unpardonable waste there is. Love and time, those are the only two things in all the world and all of life that cannot be bought, but only spent. Gary Jennings
About This Quote

It is hard to say what she was thinking when she fell in love with the man who killed her husband. I suppose, at one point in time, she thought he could make her happy. But, when she came to the realization that he murdered her husband in cold blood, she probably felt that he had destroyed everything she ever wanted. She had no life with him, only a life without him.
