"Once when I was young and true,
Someone left me sad—
Broke my brittle hart in two;
And this is very bad.

Love is for unlucky folk,
Love is but a curse.
Once there was a heart I broke;
And that, I think, is worse."

Dorothy Parker, «A very short song», Enough Rope, tiré de The Portable Dorothy Parker, Penguins, 2006
