• Friends now fast sworn,
  Whose double bosoms seems to wear one heart,
  Whose hours, whose bed, whose meal and exercise
  Are still together, who twin, as 'twere, in love,
  Unseparable, shall within this hour,
  On a dissension of a doit, break out
  To bitterest enmity; so fellest foes,
  Whose passions and whose plots have broke their sleep
  To take the one the other, by some chance,
  Some trick not worth an egg, shall grow dear friends
  And interjoin their issues.

• As we continued to talk, going through the motions of getting to know each other, I realized that we already did know each other, as well as any two people could.

None of that had changed, or could be changed by anything as inconsequential as her gender, or skin color, or sexual orientation.
