Happy Easter
Quotes on St Valentine's Day, Love and Romance
Page 13
Love is life's end (an end, but never ending)
All joys, all sweets, all happiness awarding;
Love is life's wealth (ne'er spent, but ever spending),
More rich by giving, taking by discarding;
Love's life's reward, rewarded in rewarding:
Then from thy wretched heart fond care remove;
Ah, should thou live but once love's sweets to prove,
Thou wilt not love to live unless thou live to love.
- Anonymous
from "Brittains Ida", 1628
"Love is the only satisfactory answer to the problem of human existence."
- Erich Fromm 1900-1980
"Love is the magician, the enchanter, that changes worthless things to joy, and makes right-royal kings and queens of common clay. It is the perfume of that wondrous flower, the heart, and without that sacred passion, that divine swoon, we are less than beasts: but with it, earth is heaven and we are gods."
- R. G. Ingersoll 1833-1899
"Loving can make plain people beautiful."
- Linda Clark
"Love makes a subtle man out of a crude one, it gives eloquence to the mute, it gives courage the cowardly and makes the idle quick and sharp."
- Juan Ruiz
from "El Amor"
"When love is not madness, it is not love."
- Pedro Calderon De La Marca
from "El Mayor Monstruo Los Celos"
"Why did she love him? Curious fool - be still -
Is human love the growth of human will?"
- Lord Byron 1788-1824
"Love is a grave mental disease."
- Plato 427-347 BC
"Age does not protect you from love. But love, to some extent, protects you from age."
- Jeanne Moreau 1929
"The gratification of the senses soon becomes a very small part of that profound and complicated sentiment which we call Love. Love, on the contrary, is a universal thirst for a communion, not merely of the senses, but of our whole nature, intellectual, imaginative and sensitive. He who finds his antitype, enjoys a love perfect and enduring; time cannot change it, distance cannot remove it; the sympathy is complete."
- Benjamin Disraeli 1804-1881
from "Henrietta Temple"
