you can't or shouldn't go on.

Do real life people actually fall in love
with the idea of being in love?
Unfortunately, it is actually quite common.

They design all the aspects of their married life.
A real person stands no chance of measuring up to those fantasies.
- Jonathan Lockwood Huie

I know, I know, this is a difficult one. But it is true.

- Neale Donald Walsch

The postman wants an autograph.
The cab driver wants a picture.
The waitress wants a handshake.
Everyone wants a piece of you.
