Quote by Jason Evert

“Women know in their hearts that sex should mean something. You decide: Should love be temporary, or forever? Should it be coerced, or freely given? Is it uncommitted, or faithful? Is it lifeless, or life-giving? Is it hidden, or announced to the world? If you believe that romantic love should ultimately be a life-giving public declaration of freely given faithful love that lasts forever, then you've just described marriage vows. Therefore the question is not: "Should a dating relationship require more than sex?" but rather, "Should sexual intimacy require more than a dating relationship?”

She liked to look at Penn's face so close that it split into pieces like a modernist painting. She liked the length of his front pressed against the length of hers. She felt that people who needed to do it upside down and backward from behind -- or who added candied bacon or smoked sea salt or pieces of raw cookies to their ice cream -- were probably compensating for a product that was inferior to begin with.”

“If the future is a scary prospect to you then even more reason anchoring yourself in the present moment will be positive for you. If thinking ahead makes you feel as if a vast expanse of life lies in front of you without a plot, try sitting in the now. Let the fear dissipate and leave room for other emotions and energy.”
