Hugh Walpole, New Zealand-born English novelist

“The most wonderful of all things in life, I believe, is the discovery of another human being with whom one’s relationship has a glowing depth, beauty and joy as the years increase. This inner progressiveness of love between two human beings is a most marvelous thing. It cannot be found by looking for it or by passionately wishing for it. It is sort of Divine accident.” (from the 1938 book “What Is Happiness?” answered in essays by ten writers)
