And remember that striptease of hers, just remember how deeply she was experiencing it! It was the saddest striptease I've ever seen. She was passionately trying to strip and at the same time she still remained in the hated confinement of her nurse's uniform. She was trying to strip and couldn't.

And we didn't even want to hear it. We looked at the floor and we were unsympathetic. — Milan Kundera
