“You’re a good listener. That’s dangerous, because it’s so hard to resist. Being listened to – really listened to – is the second-best thing in the world.”
“What’s the first best thing?”
“Everybody knows that. The best thing in the world is power.”
“Oh, is it?” I asked, laughing. “What about sex?”
“No. Apart from biology, sex is all about power. That’s why it’s such a rush.”
I laughed again.

“They’re wrong,” she said with terse finality. “Love is the opposite of power. That’s why we fear it so much.”
