Merrill Markoe Quotes
Younger Love, It Seemed, Was Mainly About The Idea Of Potential
the Illusion That Magical Transformations Were Bound To Occur When The Person You Think You Love Has A Miraculous Impromptu Awakening After Some Metaphorical Lightning Bolt, Made Out Of Your Wishes And Projections, Suddenly Brings Them To Their Senses. On The Other Hand, Older Love Is All About What You Are Hoping Is Still Possible, After You Have Mourned The Death Of The Idea Of Yourself As Manufacturer Of Miracles. Older Love Starts With The Unpleasant Truth That Expecting A Person To Change For The Better Spontaneously, Simply Because You Wish It, Makes As Much Sense As Counting On The Lottery For Next Month's Rent.
