Here's a basic difference between Morelli and me. My first thought was always of cake. His first thought was always of sex. Don't get me wrong. I like sex .. . a lot. But it's never going to replace cake.

About This Quote

When Morelli and DeLuca met for the first time, Morelli's first question to DeLuca was about sex. It was not really about whether or not he had enough money to buy cake; it was more about what the relationship would be like once the sex slowed down. It was more about whether they would be able to put on a happy face and act like nothing had changed. That's what makes this quote so funny.

The fact that Morelli was all too aware of how much he loved sugar and chocolate, but still thought that sex would be his focus once the relationship with DeLuca ended. It is also funny because it shows DeLuca's awareness of relationships in general. He knew that sex alone could never replace cake, but he also knew that people always look for something else when their relationships end.
