Quote by Carlo Rovelli

“Este é o tempo para nós. A lembrança e a saudade. A dor da ausência. Mas não é a ausência que provoca dor. São o afeto e o amor.

“I was right, our lovemaking is more than sex, more than love, it is pure, unadulterated nostalgia and there is nothing more intoxicating than that. I wonder if it is always like this when you sleep with someone you once loved long ago. The knowledge of that first time is hardwired into your physiology. It feels raw and right and so real, everything else fades, just the two of us in high relief.”
