“I admired how she knew, well before I did, that the point of a child is not what you hope he will accomplish in your name but the pleasure that he will bring you, whatever form it comes in, even if it is a form that is barely recognizable as pleasure at all - and more important, the pleasure you will be privileged to bring him.”

“Today I made love to my woman.
Not because I wanted to right then,
But because I knew i'd want to when we started,
And that the walk on the beach we took afterward would be more romantic,
The cocktail I made at 5:45 would taste better,
The shrimp I seasoned would have more savour,
The all-star game we watched at 7:00 would be more exciting,
The music we danced to til midmight would have more rhythm,
And the conversation about life we had together, sitting across the table from each other, until 3:00 am in the morning would be more inspiring.
And it was.”
