“September had never been betrayed before. She did not even know what to call the feeling in her chest, so bitter and sour. Poor child. There is always a first time, and it is never the last time.”
“The conventional parabola--sentiment, the touch of the hand, the kiss, the passionate kiss, the feel of the body, the climax in the bed, then more bed, then less bed, then the boredom, the tears and the final bitterness--was to him shameful and hypocritical.”
“If you're betrayed, release disappointment at once.By that way, the bitterness has no time to take root.”
“Your kiss is bitter with cocaine.”
“Honesty is a heart that betrays itself for a dream, a moment, a kiss.”
