This week’s slice of unpositive thinking has a romantic theme.

“I became aware that our love was doomed; love had turned into a love affair with a beginning and an end…But if love had to die, I wanted it to die quickly. It was as though our love were a small creature caught in a trap and bleeding to death; I had to shut my eyes and wring its neck.”

- Graham Greene, The End of the Affair
