If you were in love you’d want to be broken, trampled, ordered, dominated, because that’s the impossible, in the inconceivable for you in your relations with people. That would be the one gift, the great exception you’d want to offer the man you loved. But it wouldn’t be easy for you.

Alguien me había dicho que era sólo porque, ya sabes, estás tratando de hacer que Gail, ya sabes, porque acaba de salir del armario... Ni por 2 segundos haríamos eso.
