Richard Yates. Revolutionary Road (№ 45663)

The real error, lies, and hypocrisy was to see it as something more. All anything if to play with him for a month or two, but to stretch this game for years! And all because in its then sentimental loneliness she was comfortable to believe that talking this guy and reward him in your own lies, and as a result, everyone has said what most wanted to hear another, "I love you" and "You're the most interesting person she ever met. It's true. Honestly."
This path is treacherous and unreliable. But if you went, rolling incredibly hard, and you say "sorry, of course you're right", "you know better" and "you are the most amazing and precious thing in the world", then all truthful and honest becomes hopelessly distant and flickering, just unattainable peace amazing people.
