There's another part, an obstinate part, that wants more. That wants Dutch live and in the flesh. That wants her hand. Her mouth. Her hips under mine. It wants all of her. Every last ounce. Body and soul.

About This Quote

The obstinate part is the part of us that wants everything to be perfect. It wants things to be just so. It wants our partner to be perfect and we want the same for them. It’s not enough for us to know they’re an amazing person and we want them in our lives. We want them to be perfect in every way and in every way, we can’t have it.
