I produced my own watch from a pocket, and added that I should be grateful if he would confiscate the replacement. “It is no

35、t a question of confiscation, “ he said, “there is a fine for failing to declare dutiable goods.

44、ove you first may also be the one who says Im bored with you first. “ Hall believes that much depends on how “I love you“ is said and the motivation of the person saying it. “ Is it said when they re drunk? Is it said before their partner flies off on holiday, and what it really means is Please don

45、t be unfaithful to me ? By saying I love you , they really saying Do you love me? If so, wouldn t it just be more honest to say that?“ Collins agrees that intention is everything. “It s not what is said, but how it s said.
