“If I had the gift of poetry, I would shower you with sonnets. But words have always been difficult for me when my feelings are strongest. And there is one word in particular that I can’t bring myself to say to you…‘goodbye.’ I couldn’t bear the sight of you walking away from me.

Because someone has to teach me how to whistle. Marry me, Lillian…because I have the most irresistible fascination for your ears.”
