Love is the terrible secret people are suspected of unless they're married, then one always suspects they don't.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
If a relationship has to be a secret, you shouldn't be in it.
Marriage seems to be predicated on protecting a very deep and intimate form of mystery.
To know that one has a secret is to know half the secret itself.
Love is understood, in a historical way, as one of the great human vocations - but its counterspell has always been infidelity. This terrible, terrible betrayal that can tear apart not only another person, not only oneself, but whole families.
I love the idea of spies in love. How would it work between two people who were so programmed to lie and be suspicious, who have a whole life based on pretence?
Married life requires shared mystery even when all the facts are known.
Never tell a secret to a bride or a groom; wait until they have been married longer.
Love is unknown. To open the heart in trust is unknown. They say love hurts. It doesn't have to.
Love often wears a mask in order to test loyalty.
There is no disguise which can hide love for long where it exists, or simulate it where it does not.
