The Very Definition of Love Quotes

― Sophia Benoit, The Very Definition of Love

“Drink up and then tell me what you did," she said with an irritated sigh, as if Alexander were the one not performing his usual role in this scene.
"Why do you presume it was me?"
"I never take a man's side if I can help it.”

“Even if you offer up the absolute miracle of having you for a night. I don’t want that. Well, I do. But I don’t think I could stand to have you only for one night. I want more than that. I want you to have more than that. I want you to love me.” She opened her mouth. “Harriet, if you interrupt me right now, so help me God!” She wisely closed her mouth. “I want you to love me because I treat you well. Because I’m faithful to you. Because I’m actually a good husband to you. I want you to love me because I give you what you deserve, which is unadulterated devotion. Harriet, I want you to love me because I love you.”
