So the great affair is over but whoever would have guessedit would leave us all so vacant and so deeply unimpressedIt's like our visit to the moon or to that other starI guess you go for nothing if you really want to go that far.

What I loved in my old life--I haven’t forgotten--it lives in my spine.

I loved you for a long, long time I know this love is real It don't matter how it all went wrong That don't change the way I feel And I can't believe that time's Gonna heal this wound I'm speaking of There ain't no cure for love

A woman watches her body uneasily, as though it were an unreliable ally in the battle for love.

I felt like if any two people had any kind of sexual affinity for each other they had to sleep with each other immediately, otherwise it was a terrible betrayal and waste...Fortunately, I'm relieved of those obsessions now. It's really wonderful. It's really wonderful not feeling you have to sleep with everybody.

Fare thee well my nightingale, I lived but to be near you. Thow you are singing somewhere still I can no longer hear you.
