I cannot say what love is, Madame Otto. Nor can anyone.

And what has love to do with diplomacy? Would we, diplomats, not be better served to leave this question to poets of esteem, musicians, artists--why, even our philosophers, Madame Otto, might be better served to answer such a question.

Indeed, those of the Inquisition--as hard-working and simple of faith and straightforward of mind and honest of heart they may be--may truly not possess the words with which to describe that which is so intangible, so complex, so... like a mist.
