The moment my friend asked me how I was so relaxed, was the moment I realised that I had donned the mask of calmness, well, too well. Perhaps in all this time it has changed into the mask of indifference. Perhaps it is the reason, why despite seeking love everywhere, I find nothing permanent.

Drusilla: You don't betray the trust of people you like.
Arturus: Sure you do.
Drusilla: What do you mean?
Arturus: Who else's trust am I going to betray? Who else is going to trust me? She's the only one that I can betray.

[…] For in other ways a woman
Is full of fear, defenseless, dreads the sight of cold
Steel, but, when once she is wronged in the matter of love,
No other soul can hold so many thoughts of blood.
— Euripides, Medea (transl. Rex Warner)
