Margaret George Quotes - Page 2

• Ahora sentía la urgencia largamente olvidada de hacer el amor, cuando parece que los seres humanos se van, para ser sustituidos por bestias hambrientas que buscan su comida. Desaparecen los seres civilizados que hablan de modales, viajes y cartas; en su lugar hay dos cuerpos que se esfuerzan por dar a luz a una explosión de placer inhumano seguida de una gran nada flotante. Una explosión de vida seguida de muerte: en esto vivimos, y en esto presagiamos nuestras propias dulces muertes.

It had become a ritual for us, as it does for all lovers: where, when, why? remember...I understand even old people rehearse their private religion of how they first loved, most guarded of secrets. And he would answer, sleep blurring his words, "Because I had to." The question and the answer were always the same. Why? Because I had to.
