“Romantic love is a beautiful thing under the right circumstances. But those circumstances are so specific and rare, aren’t they? It’s rare that you love the person who loves you, that you love only the person who loves only you. Otherwise, somebody’s heartbroken. But I guess that’s why true love is so alluring in the first place. It’s hard to find and hold on to, like all beautiful things. Like gold, saffron, or an aurora borealis.”
