“Never really loved by anyone, never seeming really to love anyone either”
“I never heard of anyone who was really literate or who ever really loved books who wanted to suppress any of them.”
“We never love anyone. Not really. We only love our idea of another person. It is some conception of our own that we love. We love ourselves, in fact.”
“Essentially, love is the Donnie Darko of feelings: Anyone who brags, "I, like, totally get it man," is either full of crap or really, really high (or they watched the commentary on the DVD).”
“I’ve never felt like this for anyone. And I’m not really sure what falling in love feels like, but I think—I know I have. With you.”
“Anyone who said power was not addictive had never really experienced it.”
