“The tragedy of love is indifference”

“To be treated with indifference is the greatest tragedy a Human Soul can suffer.”

“Nobody was speaking. Only the cicadas continued their whine, indifferent to human tragedies.”

“The tragedy of love is not death or separation. How long do you think it would have been before one or other of them ceased to care? Oh, it is dreadfully bitter to look at a woman whom you have loved with all your heart and soul, so that you felt you could not bear to let her out of your sight, and realize that you would not mind if you never saw her again. The tragedy of love is indifference.”

“The opposite of love is not hate, it's indifference. The opposite of art is not ugliness, it's indifference. The opposite of faith is not heresy, it's indifference. And the opposite of life is not death, it's indifference.”

“And those who only know the non-platonic love have no need to talk of tragedy. In such love there can be no sort of tragedy.”
