“Sex isn't all that important, but it is when you love someone very much.”

“I would very much like to strangle someone. Why don't you go away until I decide it isn't you?”

“Is it a crime when you love someone so much that you can't stand the thought of them changing? Is it a crime when you love someone so much that you can't see clearly?”

“Don't knock masturbation. It's sex with someone you love.”

“It is not how much you love someone, but who you are when you are with him.”

“All the privilege I claim for my own sex (it is not a very enviable one: you need not covet it), is that of loving longest, when existence or when hope is gone!”

“There isn't so much love in the world that you can turn it away when it's offered.”

“Can you understand? Someone, somewhere, can you understand me a little, love me a little? For all my despair, for all my ideals, for all that - I love life. But it is hard, and I have so much - so very much to learn.”

“It's very easy to feel someone's pain when you love them.”

“You don't just decide to have sex because you feel like having sex. You decide to have sex once you realize you're in love with someone and want to express that love physically.”
