“I don't understand it completely … but she adores me. She thinks I'm funny.”

Interview in The Guardian (2011)
Context: I don't understand it completely … but she adores me. She thinks I'm funny. … My attitude towards communication has always been: it's a slippery slope, because you start communicating, the next thing you know you're going to be talking to each other, the next thing you know you're going to be feeling things, and then you'll be living your life and I want no part of that. … So I tried to avoid that stuff, but she forces it upon me.

For else it could not be,
That she,
Whom I adore so much, should so slight me,
And cast my love behind.”
