" A woman leaves you because she no longer sees in you the qualities you never had.

What better way to enter a stranger’s world than through his library?

Without a strong dose of hypocrisy, there would be no social life.

The little that a woman knows about her appearance, she learns not from mirrors, but from the words of men.

You don’t learn about life through imagination.” “How else do you learn about it? If you’re informed by your experience, you’ll never know much; but thanks to stories, confidences, daydreams, virtual journeys, you begin to find your way through the maze.”

Kiss. Exploration of a person’s oral cavity with the intention of undressing him/her.

Love. 1. Problem between human beings that some take for a solution. 2. Selfishness that achieves a temporary balance with another person’s selfishness. 3. Unusual ability to take an interest in another person while losing one’s own self-interest. "
