Quotes 

• Sophie : Abstinence is turning you sour; give it up.

  Martin : I have.

  Sophie : Really? Do I know her?

  Martin : No, I met her in odd circumstances a few weeks ago.

  Sophie : Really? You must be pleased.

  Martin : You're quite wrong, I don't like her at all. She's totally uninteresting. I'm trying to get rid of her.

  Sophie : Why? Is she ugly?

  Martin : Not particularly.

  Sophie : Is she stupid then?

  Martin : No. Not at all. She never says anything stupid. It's complicated. She bores me. I have no contact with her. Or rather only physical contact.

  Sophie : Why complain? That's not so bad.

  Martin : You can't imagine how basic she is, she has no conversation. When she speaks, she sounds silent. Her only means of expression is sexual.
