"Love doesn't go away overnight. It sometimes stays for coffee."
"Where there is asakti [infatuation], there accusations cannot refrain from happening. That is indeed the nature of asakti [infatuation]."
"Of course, the self-righteous demand and expectation for love, and exactly how it should be expressed, is not the most streamlined method for producing it in another for you.
