The wise man 29 ，“When they love each other even more, they do not 30 ， but only whisper and they get even closer to each other. Finally they 31 need not whisper. They only look at each other and that"s 32 . That is how close two people are when they love each other.”
He looked at his disciples and said, “So when you 33 ， do not let your hearts get distant. Do not say words that distance each other more. 34 there will come a day when the distance is so great that you"ll not find the path to 35 . You may end up becoming enemies, for instance.”
