The memories that remain clearly in my mind tell me how much I loved you, how much we loved each other. For the next three months, we thought about getting married. I had principled and ideological objections. I viewed marriage as a bourgeois institution, and thought that since love was at stake, it socialized and legally regulated a relationship that should unite two people in the least social sphere. The legal bond had the tendency, even the duty, to become independent of the couple's emotions and experience. And I was saying: “What can guarantee that, in ten or twenty years, our lifelong contract will correspond to the desires of the people we will become?” Your answer was inevitable: “If you are united with someone for a lifetime, you can share your lives and forget about doing the thing that would tear or break your marriage. It is your common design to create a couple from yourself, you can never stop redirecting, adapting and supporting it according to changing conditions. We will be whatever we do together.”

"You will soon be eighty-two years old. You've lost six centimeters in height, you weigh at most forty-five kilos, and you're still beautiful, attractive, and desirable. We have been living together for fifty-eight years and I love you more than ever.”
