الاهتمام في الحب أشبه بأن تقوم بتربية قطة، لا يمكنك أن تقدم لها البطاطس المقلية لأنها وجبتك المفضلة وﻷنك تعشقها كثيرا، ثم تتذمر بعد ذلك حين لا يعجبها اﻷمر، وترى أنها لا تقدر ما تفعله من أجلها والوقت والجهد الذين تبذلهما في شراء البطاطس وغسلها وتقشيرها وتقطيعها وقليها، ثم تخبر بعد ذلك أنها متطلبة وأنها لا تستحقك، في الحب إما أن تقدم لمن معك ما يحتاجه هو تماما أو حينها سيكون كل ما تقدمه، حتى وإن كان أفضل ما لديك، لا معنى له.

What then makes the person so unique ?
