From Jenny

"Tim. For you, my heart... Ripped from my chest. Eviscerated, I am. And if I could, I would plunge my fingers through my chest and rip out my heart and give it to you. A pulpy mass of morbid diathesis.

In addition to my heart, there are some small organs that I want to give you: glands... sweetbreads... variety meats.

I'm offering these gifts. Rare gifts. I know that they don't amount too much in the face of what you've given me.

I've heard these organs can't survive outside the body for more than a few hours. But I'll try to get there as soon as I can. Whatever happens, it will be on me. On my heart."

- in The L Word, by Jenny

[Diathesis (according to Jenny): "Um... it's like a susceptibility to disease. It's like... all those parts of me that are susceptible to invasion."]
