Christie's Treasure Trove

My favorite for the week is from The Beautiful and Damned. I'm not sure why, but I really like this quote. It's a somewhat subtle, though descriptive, way of depicting the falling in love of a man with a woman.
"She was a sun, radiant, growing, gathering light and storing it- then after an eternity pouring it forth in a glance, the fragment of a sentence, to that part of him that cherished all beauty and illusion" (61).
