Alexander McCall Smith Quotes
When We Love Others, We Naturally Want To Talk About Them, We Want To Show Them Off, Like Emotional Trophies. We Invest Them With A Power To Do To Others What They Do To Us; A Vain Hope, As The Lovers Of Others Are Rarely Of Much Interest To Us. But We Listen In Patience, As Friends Must, And As Isabel Now Did, Refraining From Comment, Other Than To Encourage The Release Of The Story And The Attendant Confession Of Human Frailty And Hope.
