Julie’s Quote:
“I couldn’t love anyone more than I do you, it would kill me. And I couldn’t love anyone less because it would always feel like less. Even if I loved some other girl, that’s all I would ever think about, the difference between loving her and loving you.”
–Lincoln to Sam
(Attachments by: Rainbow Rowell)
So this quote is not really from the main book boyfriend to the main book girlfriend in this book, but anyway, it was his girlfriend at the time. I thought it was sweet, and kind of made me wonder do we really compare how we love people to previous people we’ve loved?

I love Rainbow. I hope she writes many more books. Thanks for linking to Quote Me Thursday!
Sweet and intense. Interesting question too. I have to say, I’m actually with the only person I’ve ever loved, so I have no basis for comparison. But, if its anything like how I compare my book boyfriends, the absolutely!
I’ve never read any Rainbow Rowell, but I’ve heard great things! As for comparing people we’ve loved, I don’t think I find myself comparing the people so much as my level of happiness when I was with each. If that makes sense 🙂

I think I compare level of happiness as well. That’s what really matters, right?
I love Rainbow Rowell but sadly, I’ve only read a few pages of Attachments and need to get back to it. Lovely quote 🙂

Hope you enjoy it when you get back to reading it 🙂
That’s a great quote, Julie. And it does make you think. My guess is that we do make comparisons – at least in some ways. Thanks for sharing!

I think so too, we tend to compare our experiences against other experiences at least.
I like that one. I think it’s interesting that it’s from a previous girlfriend. It’s a lot like the quote I did from the end Beautiful Creatures. I’ve read all of the rest of Rainbow’s books, but not this one. I’ll have to move it up on the TBR list.
