Anne Carson from Short Talks

"Don't you understand?!" She almost screamed the words.

"I am a good woman. I have morals, I have dreams and aspirations for myself that are so black and white that I have built these walls to be my foundation, but you- " Her breathe hitched.

"You have made me mad with a passion I believed to be in only story books. You are a color I have yet to know, and I can not fathom. I do not want to know of anything else.

You have become my favorite color."
