You know I’m a by-rules kind of woman, right? Well, I can tell you, from a scientist’s point of view, there is nothing wrong with this. You hear me? Human sexuality is a continuum, Jane. Love is imprecise. And if you’re worried about God, well… God is love. Right? Isn’t that what you’ve been taught? If love is imprecise, and God is love, well, by the transitive property, that makes God imprecise. Just like you’re imprecise. Just like I’m imprecise. Just like everyone is. Because God is in everyone, Jane. The Universe is in everyone. And if what’s inside you says that it feels good to be with another woman, no one can argue with that. Those feelings are written by stardust, by the tiny particles of the universe-at-large that make up what’s inside you. That stardust, that Godliness, that continuum of humanity… it’s what makes you you, Jane Clementine Rizzoli. And no can tell you that you can’t be you.
