Demelza: You loved Elizabeth.
Ross: Once. But it's the memory of that love that makes me sick at heart today.
            For the loss of all that she was and that she had to come.
            Most of all, I feel afraid.
Demelza: Of what?
Ross: Of losing you. Of losing you from my life. To think that there will come a time
            when I will never hear your voice again. Nor you mine.
