Greta Garbo. Flesh and the Devil, 1926. Dir. Clarence Brown.
Love has nothing to do with what you are expecting to get — only what you are expecting to give — which is everything. What you will receive in return varies. But it really has no connection with what you give. You give because you love and cannot help giving.
Susan: Oh, look, David! Baby’s on the roof. Come on, Baby, come on down! Come on! Oh David, make him get down.
David: I suppose you’d like me to climb up and push him down.
Susan: Well, maybe we’d better sing. I can’t give you anything but - well sing, David!
Both: I can’t give you anything but love, Baby!
That’s the only thing I’ve plenty of, Baby!
Dream a while, scheme a while
We’re sure to find happiness
and I guess all those things you’ve always pined for!
