“David era un practicante bastante entusiasta de la exaltación del pene de la noche del sábado. Seguramente millones de mujeres eran violadas en nombre del amor conyugal en todo el país las noches del sábado.”
Verity Bargate, No, mamá, no

“Las amigas duran más que los amantes. Alguien me lo dijo hace mucho tiempo y yo me reí, convencida de que la pasión podía superarlo todo, de que era la única forma de sobrevivir. Ahora veía que constituía el camino más seguro hacia el aislamiento y el dolor.”
Verity Bargate, No, mamá, no

“La pasión difumina tantas cosas; es preferible vivir o casarse con un amigo que una aprecie: entonces queda algo capaz de mantener la unión. Nosotros no teníamos nada. Ningún respeto mutuo. Y, Dios nos ampare, dos hijos.”
