From my favorite romantic comedy, Johnny Cammarari (Nicholas Cage) to Loretta Castorini (Cher) in one of the best romantic declarations ever:
Loretta, I love you. Not like they told you love is, and I didn’t know this either — but love don’t make things nice. It ruins everything. It breaks your heart. It makes things a mess. We aren’t here to make things perfect. The snowflakes are perfect. The stars are perfect. Not us. Not us! We are here to ruin ourselves, and to break our hearts, and love the wrong people, and die. I mean, that the storybooks are bullshit! Now I want you to come upstairs with me and get in my bed.
I LOVED that movie. Thank you for posting this!!
true dat.
I love that scene! Lord, that’s funny! 🙂
Yes, even though you know it is stupid, come upstairs and let me wreck your life and break your heart.
Love is a trick your mind plays on you to get you to reproduce even when it makes no sense to do so.
great scene
great movie
thanks
