“SITUATIONAL INTIMACY: Intimacy generated by a shared situation rather than a romantic or familial relationship, as when random train or airliner seatmates share their innermost secrets.”
“We were not making love, we did not even kiss, but the inexplicable intimacy we shared left us wordlessly and hopelessly locked into each other's gaze.”
“Women are still in emotional bondage as long as we need to worry that we might have to make a choice between being heard and being loved.”
“Physical intimacy isn’t and can never be an effective substitute for emotional intimacy.”
“An hour's conversation on literature between two ardent minds with a common devotion to a neglected poet is a miraculous road to intimacy.”
