"“I know how you feel. It’s always more a curse than a blessing ya know.” “What it is?” “Being smart and what is considered beautiful. I was in my day quite striking. I never thought I’d ever meet a man who could outsmart or outthink me. And those poor creatures, they did bore me. It does cause quite a fuss. Smart and beautiful. Mostly in your own gut. You stop believing that he could be out there waiting for you.”"
