“There's so few things men can talk about. If a man doesn't like baseball, then he must like horses, and if he doesn't like either of them, well, I'm in trouble anyway: he don't like girls.”
“Man only likes to count his troubles; he doesn't calculate his happiness.”
“And then he hugs me. Really hugs me. Like he thinks that there's only one of me and I'm special and I'm enough for him. Like he doesn't need anything else. Like he was alone and then I came along.”
“I don't think he likes girls", I said. "Or boys. Look at the horror on his face. He doesn't look like a people person.”
“Love is like a man who doesn't know his own strength: he means well, but sometimes he crushes you.”
“I don't like compliments, and I don't see why a man should think he is pleasing a woman enormously when he says to her a whole heap of things that he doesn't mean.”
