Julian Barnes Quote

Δεν λέω ότι ο έρωτας θα σε κάνει ευτυχισμένο-προπαντός αυτο δε λέν λέω. Κι αν τείνω να πιστέψω κάτι, αυτό είναι πως θα σε κάνει δυστυχισμένο. είτε αμέσως, καθώς σε διαπερνά η αίσθηση της ασυμβατότητας, είτε αργότερα, όταν το σαράκι που δουλεευει αθόρυβα επί χρόνια θα κάνει το θρόνο του επισκόπου να καταρεύσει. Μπορεί όμως κανείς να το πιστεύει αυτό και να εξακολουθεί να επιμένει ότι η μόνη μας ελπίδα είναι ο έρωτας. Και είναι η μόνη μας ελπίδα ακόμα και αν μας προδώσει, παρόλο που μας προδίδει, επειδή μας προδίδει.
