"Quantum of Solace"

This morning as I was reading the Top Stories on CNN.... "Producers reveal title of new James Bond" caught my eye. Wow! Another Bond movie and a Daniel Craig starrer!

Filming has begun and it's a sequel to "Casino Royale" beginning an hour after the films ends with Bond devastated after his betrayal by true love Vesper Lynd. Will Bond find solace in the arms of the two Bond girls played by Olga Kurylenko and Gemma Artenton? Bond may be diverted but then again, he may not! We'll just have to wait for the answers. The movie is due to be released later this year and the title chosen by the Producers is "Quantum of Solace". The title is taken from a story by Bond creator Ian Fleming that appears in "For your eyes only".

Fleming defined quantum of solace as "that spark of niceness in a relationship that if you don't have, you might as well give up."

Quantum of solace, roughly a measure of comfort......an integral part for a relationship to flourish which if lacking, might as well call it off! Just what I have always been saying!
