Denny : You and Gloria leave it as friends?
Alan : No
Denny: It's sad how you go from intimacy to nothing, cold turkey. I mean, how many people along the way have true meaning in your life? ... And suddenly have no contact after... it's sad.
Denny : Love is an ugly business my friend, ugly business... and yet we live for it.
Alan : Well, as you say, maybe it's the only thing that really matters.
Denny: Ugly business.
