Quote #10

"You don't even understand what love is. Do you? Human love. Do you know what it is?"

"No," Nick said quietly.

"Do you know anything about it?"

"I don't," Nick said, and swallowed. "I don't know." (15.78-81)

Yeah, yeah—we know what Nick said. But it seems quite clear to us that he does know a thing or two (or three) about love. So why—after risking his life for his brother, Mae, and Jamie—would he answer Arthur's question this way?
