That One Person Quotes (page 9)
The sailors do not mind the arrangement, for they know that this way there will, at the least, be one person who, at the last, will notice when they do not come back from the sea, and will mourn their loss; and their wives content themselves with the certain knowledge that their husbands are also unfaithful, for there is no competing with the sea in a man's affections, since she is both mother and mistress, and she will wash his corpse also, in time to come, wash it to coral and ivory and...

George Bernard Shaw
I suggest that you not ignore many possible candidates who are still developing these attributes, seeking the one who is perfected in them.

But time, as well as healing all wounds, taught me something strange too: that it's possible to love more than one person in a lifetime. I remarried.

You can't measure love the way you can the length of a road or the height of a building.
