I saw her today at the reception.
She had a glass of wine in her hand.
She said, "Well, now I have to go meet my connection."
At her feet was a footloose man.

I heard her say,
"You can't always get what you want.
You can't always get what you want.
You can't always get what you want,
but if you try sometimes, you just might find,
surely you will find you get what you need.
Oh, don't you find that you will get what you need?"

Romance only dies with life. No pair of pincers will ever pull it out of us. But there is a spurious sentiment which cannot resist the unexpected and the incongruous and the grotesque. A touch will loosen it, and the sooner it goes from us the better. (Ch. 2) E.M. Forester, Where Angels Fear to Tread

If you spend you life in pirsuit of that one, perfect thing, make damn sure that it's what you think it is.  Too many people have sacrificed everything in the pirsuit of a pile of dust only to look back, yearning to make an exchange that cannot be made ever again.
