" I could have made a woman happy. Well, two; I have said which ones. Everything was clear, extremely clear from the beginning, but we didn't realize. Did we yield to the illusion of individual freedom, of an open life, of infinite possibilities? It's possible; those ideas were part of the spirit of the age; we didn't formalize them, we didn't have the taste to do that; we merely conformed and allowed ourselves to be destroyed by them; and then , for a very long to suffer as a result. "
