Technically, on the spectrum of very bad things, they did nothing truly wicked. But of course, that spectrum has no measure for the greatest of all carnal sins, the kind that occurs before skin touches skin, before wondering turns to yearning, yearning to having, having to holding for dear life, when two people cling to each other so desperately that even when they lie, inches apart, neither is fully satisfied until the light between them turns to darkness.

About This Quote

In the film “The Notebook,” a woman tells her boyfriend that she has great sex with him. He’s skeptical. But in her mind, she knows it’s true because there is something “very bad” about it. And she doesn’t know what that is, but in the moment when they are in a sexual embrace together, in a kind of rapture too much to describe, when their two hearts beat as one, when their souls speak to each other in a language only they can understand, something very bad happens.

In this moment, when they are in that special place that only lovers know how to reach, something bad happens. They have crossed the line into great wickedness.
