"The only obsession everyone wants: 'love.' People ..." - Philip Roth, The Dying Animal - Quote

Quote

"The only obsession everyone wants: 'love.' People think that in falling in love they make themselves whole? The Platonic union of souls? I think otherwise. I think you're whole before you begin. And the love fractures you. You're whole, and then you're cracked open."

— Philip Roth, The Dying Animal
