| Quotes |
Paul:
You know that if you were dying... I would cut the heart out of my chest for you. I would die so that you would live. That's how much I love you. That's how much I worship you. And I think that you actually know. You know that. And it doesn't matter to you. Erasmus: It does matter to me. Paul: It doesn't matter. And I can't stand it anymore. See more » |
