3 quotes

Stubbornness equals character roughly as lust equals love.

Love, as it exists in society, is nothing but the exchange of two fantasies and the contact of two skins.

In the world you have three sorts of friends: your friends who love you, your friends who do not care about you and your friends who hate you.
