Romantic love, or sex, is the only good thing in a life that is being lived in a dark way.

I love a good romantic comedy.

Full-blooded romantic love I wouldn't be able to write about.

Romantic love is mental illness. But it's a pleasurable one. It's a drug. It distorts reality, and that's the point of it. It would be impossible to fall in love with someone that you really saw.

I love Paris for the million reasons that everybody loves the city. It's an incredibly romantic and beautiful place.

In real love you want the other person's good. In romantic love you want the other person.
