At home, besides being Peter or Jane, we also bear a general character; husband or wife, brother or sister, chief, colleague or subordinate. Not among Friends. It is an affair of disentangled, or stripped, minds. Eros will have naked bodies; Friendship naked personalities.

Gabriel Garcia Marquez

Before anyone can ask anything, I empty my game bag and it becomes 18:00 - Cat Adoration.

He gives me a particularly smug look when she ties the blue ribbon around his neck.
Suzanne Collins
