thing else in common: both were dubbed poor lovers by their bed
partners.

MARILYN MONROE, who said: "I don't know if I do it right," after
making love with MARLON BRANDO and "/ think I make his
back feel better" about JOHN F. KENNEDY.
J. EDGAR HOOVER, who said: "I was in love once when I was
young, but then I became attached to the Bureau." (And in fact there
is no evidence that Hoover ever made love.)
CASANOVA, the lover's lover, who, incidentally, had only a tenth of

women—goddesses and doormats."
And a Happily Ever After coda of contented married couples from
the Alexander Graham Bells to the Louis Pasteurs, from General
and Mrs. Robert E. Lee to General and Mrs. Erwin Rommel.
