Halves Quotes (page 2)

He suddenly recalled from Plato's Symposium: People were hermaphrodites until God split then in two, and now all the halves wander the world over seeking one another. Love is the longing for the half of ourselves we have lost. Milan Kundera
Amy Tan quote: "And after I played them both a few times, I realized they were..."
