"Jerome: Every woman has her most vulnerable point. For some, it's the nape of the neck, the waist, the hands. For Claire, in that position, in that light, it was her knee."
"Aurora, the novelist: She disturbs you? How? Her body? Jerome: Yes, the way she looks, since it's all I know about her. We've hardly ever spoken. I find it quite difficult to talk to her. Aurora, the novelist: Well, well. She intimidates you. Jerome: I feel absolutely powerless around girls like that."
