    Yul Bryner also said (paraphrase), "When you go to your favorite restaurant and you are saistisfied having had the best meal, all that changes when you get the check." He was referring to being hurt in love. The hurt is the check and most of us pay. It is the same with life. Being born, the middle (the gift) and the end, the check.
