Love is not asking if it's worth it
Janelle 2022-04-24 07:01:04
what do you think love is? I'm sad but I don't want to tell you because I don't want you to be sad; I'm sad but I don't want to tell you because I want to suffer alone. This is not love, love needs to be shared, whether it is pain or happiness. I'm sad, I'm going to find you, I want you to be by my side, I want you to hold me. We are sad together and happy together. "Love and Elixir" tells us little by little that it is not so easy to have one among thousands of people who touch your heart. When love comes, don't think too much. Since we need each other, don't be separated for any external reason, even an invincible disease. Love is an elixir that redeems everyone who is lost in love.

Maggie Murdock: I'm gonna need you more than you need me.
Jamie Randall: That's okay.
Maggie Murdock: [crying] No it's not! It isn't *fair*! I have places to go!
Jamie Randall: You'll go there. I just may have to carry you.
Maggie Murdock: ...I can't ask you to do that.
Jamie Randall: You didn't.

Jamie Randall: Hey, Lisa.
Bruce Winston: Her name's not Lisa.
Jamie Randall: I know. I know. But, if everytime I say "Hey, Lisa", then eventually she'll come up to me and she'll be like, you know, "My name's not Lisa it's... Jennifer"... whatever, and I'll do a big apology and I'll say, "I thought you were the Lisa who was mad at me for not calling". And, from then on Jennifer, or whatever her name is, will think that I dated a girl who looked just like her... who I rejected. She'll develop this unconscious need to win my approval and from then on, it's cake.
Bruce Winston: Damn!
