" Oh, my darling, why is it that love makes me hate the world? It’s supposed to have quite the opposite effect. I feel as though all mankind, and God, too, were in a conspiracy against us.”
“They are, they are.”
“But we’ve got our happiness in spite of them; here and now, we’ve taken possession of it. They can’t hurt us, can they?”
“Not tonight; not now. "

― Evelyn Waugh , Brideshead Revisited
