“I don't want him to think I'm crazy, because I'm not. Desperate is what I am. Quietly desperate and insatiably curious.”

“Just so we're clear, I dont' secretly want to have sex with either of my parents.Me either. I worked through that in college just to make sure. It was touch and go for a while, especially when my father kept asking me if he looked pretty.”

“Love fills all the gaps in our souls.”

“Can I ask you something?Boxers. Briefs exacerbate my claustrophobia.”
