According to Mr. Allen

To love is to suffer. To avoid suffering, one must not love. But, then one suffers from not loving. Therefore, to love is to suffer, not to love is to suffer, to suffer is to suffer. To be happy is to love, to be happy, then, is to suffer, but suffering makes one unhappy, therefore, to be unhappy one must love, or love to suffer, or suffer from too much happiness -- I hope you're getting this down.

--Woody Allen



...so, what he's saying is, love is a cunt that destroys all happiness and causes excessive suffering in the process. I think he might be onto something.

No heaven without hell.

There isn't such a thing as happily ever after, but there is a part of us that enjoys suffering. It is the only way that we know we can feel. So, to sum it up, suck it up ladies and gentlemen. There's no way around it and we can't live without it.

Yeah, but this is from a guy who hooked up with his underaged stepdaughter. I'm takin' it with a grain of salt, myself.

LOL, 'love is a cunt', that's a quicker way..that Woody is enough to give anyone an ulcer. Imagine hearing him recite all that, complete with his mannerisms?
