“Some things I loved have vanished. A great many others have been given to me”
“I could have been a great many things.”
“I should have been a great many things, Mr Mayor”
“For me, I would rather have a small gift given with great love.”
“Some loves have to be given up, others have to be forgotten. Strange as it may sound, if you think of me as a monster, but I can love most passionately. I do not think of myself as evil.”
“What then? Joy-jaunts, impassioned flings, Love and its ecstasy, Will always have been great things, great things to me!”
