A successful marriage requires falling in love many times, always with the same person..
When threatened, the first thing a democracy gives up is democracy..
Flesh goes on pleasuring us, and humiliating us, right to the end..
The past is strapped to our backs. We do not have to see it; we can always feel it..
Hope is the feeling we have that the feeling we have is not permanent..
The trouble with women is men; the trouble with men, men..
Love unlocks doors and opens windows that weren't even there before..
