"That is true," said Merlin. "And surely Guinevere is as lovely as you say, but if you do not deeply love her, I could find another good and beautiful enough to please you. But if your heart is set on Guinevere, you will not look at anyone else."-The Acts of King Arthur and His Noble Knights, de John Steinbeck.
"That is the truth," said the king.
"If I should advise you that Guinevere is an unfortunate choice, would that change you?"
"No."
"Well then, if I should tell you that Guinevere will be unfaithful to you with your dearest and most trusted friend--"
"I would not believe you."
"Of course not," said Merlin sadly. "Every man who has ever lived holds tight to the belief that for him alone the laws of probability are canceled out by love."
(Ah, la ironía, convertirme en Arthur cuando Lancelot siempre fue mi favorito y Guinevere una víctima excusada)
