Quote #10
He knew that I love you also means I love you more than anyone loves you, or has loved you, or will love you, and also, I love you in a way that no one loves you, or has loved you, or will love you, and also, I love you in a way that I love no one else, and never have loved anyone else, and never will love anyone else. He knew that it is, by love's definition, impossible to love two people. (21.10)
In other words: don't tell someone you love them unless you really really mean that it is powerful and unique. This is why Safran doesn't "love" any of his lovers. He knows that true love is more powerful than anything he is capable of feeling for them. (We think he might just need to grow up a little, but then we're cynics.)
