A nice person tells me sweet things. I was remarking to a person (I often can talk to semi-strangers more openly than I can family and aquaintances) Her reply was, “no one ever loved me like that!” I was dumbstruck. I was thinking like Romeo loved Juliet. Or John loved Yoko. Amazing. ---

Aye; this is one of the saddest quotes I’ve ever read in my whole life: > [@](#): > > “She broke down and cried,” Inman recalled. “She kept touching the frame and said, ‘This is the only man who ever loved me.’” From this AP story: > **[Missouri woman believed to be last Civil War widow dies](https://apnews.com/article/last-civil-war-widow-dead-367329af8e4e6c8524bef9f2ad1d1181)** > > O'FALLON, Mo. (AP) — Helen Viola Jackson's 1936 marriage to James Bolin was unusual to say the least: He was 93 and in declining health, and she was a 17-year-old schoolgirl. ---

I’m astonished. If you’d told me a year ago that a Civil War widow was still alive, I’d have scoffed. The fact she never collected his pension brought tears to my eyes. Thank you so much for posting this! ---

Sweet things? Blueberry pie? Marshmellows? A fine tuned RZ350? A chainsaw that starts on the second pull? ---

Oh, that’s great. I’ve watched Casablanca many times and never noticed that quote. Thanks for posting that! ---

That may be my favorite line in the entire movie. It tells you everything about Rick. ---
