Romy is the only true love of my life... I haven’t betrayed her a single second, I was always thinking only about her and still am..I have never recovered from her death. I still miss her terribly... I'm not afraid to die, because i know I’d be with her

Alain Delon, 2011

What's important is that we're together. And as long as we're together, nothing bad can really happen. Right, Norman?
