About This Quote
In the middle of a conversation, a friend of mine asked me what I thought of my sister, who just got engaged to a man for his money. And before I could even think about how to respond, she continued with this: "I mean, she's never been in love. She's been in love with men who were not rich. And she's been in love with rich men who have been in love with other women." For her, it was obvious that being in love was not about being happy and being cared for. Instead, her view was that you needed to be rich or have magical powers or some other crazy thing that she could not put into words.
