“Just because something isn't meant to last a lifetime doesn't mean it wasn't meant to be. We were meant to have been. You and I aren't going to spend our lives together...But I finally understand that that doesn't take away any of the beauty of the fact that we were right for each other once. True love doesn't always last...It doesn't always have to be for a lifetime. And that doesn't mean it's not true love. It was real. And now it's over. And that's OK. "I am who I am because I loved you once," he says "I am who I am because I loved you once. too”

“Seafood, of course, has aphrodisiac qualities. Mollusks, too---like lanarche ajo e ojo, snails in oil and garlic. Perhaps some carciofioni, baby artichokes cooked with mint, pulled apart with the fingers and dipped in soft, melted butter. Wine, obviously. And then, to finish, a burst of sugar, something light but artificial, so that you feel full of energy and happiness---but that's only one side of the story. If you want someone to fall in love with you, you would cook for them something very different, something perfectly simple but intense. Something that shows you understand their soul." "Such as?" "Well, that's the difficulty. It will vary from individual to individual. You'd have to really know the person concerned---their history, their background, whether they are raw or refined, dry or oily. You would have to have tasted them, to know whether their own flesh is sweet or savory, salty or bland. In short, you would have to love them, and even then you might not truly know them well enough to cook a dish that would capture their heart.”
