- Encontro-te lá.
Conduzida pelo magnetismo secreto dos seus olhos, olhou-se ao espelho e achou-se harmoniosa. Viu um brilho determinado nos olhos, que poderia ser só do gin, mas ela identificou-o e apercebeu-se, pela primeira vez, que todo o quarto cheirava a fumo de tabaco e que aquele não era um dia com muito sol, era um dia ideal para ficar deitada, a ler, a beber e a fumar. Sabia que não devia sair e que parte dela queria ficar mas, às vezes, no que toca ao amor, parece que não aprendemos nada com o passar dos anos.”

“The rest of us have to play along with God’s little game of Russian roulette, His eternal lesson to live it up while you can. And far be it for me to turn away from God—let’s get a drink.”
