"Marriage is one sweet way in which one can taste heaven on earth. Similarly, I can also become hell on earth."

"I wasn't in love with her. And she didn't love me. For me the question of love was irrelevant.

Because the good stuff is always going to be there, and it's always going to pretty and sparkly, but the crap underneath can ruin you."

"The only way we can touch the heart of men is to overlook an offense."

"Be with someone you don't want to be without."

"I prefer having sex with myself rather than with someone who wants something instead."
