Believe in love Quote by Brian Kinney
““I don’t believe in love, I believe in fucking. It’s honest, it’s efficient. You get in and out with maximum of pleasure and a minimum of bullshit. Love is something that straight people tell themselves they’re in, so they can get laid. And they end up hurting each other, because it was all based on lies to begin with. If that is what you want, then go and find yourself a pretty little girl, and get married.””
