  • i took one look at you and followed you into the store. if you’d walked into a restaurant, i would have become a waiter. if you’d walked into a burning building, i would have become a fireman. if you’d walked into an elevator, i would have stopped it between two floors, and we’d have spent the rest of our lives there.
