Of all forms of caution, caution in love is perhaps the most fatal to true
happiness.
Bertrand Russell
It's better to have loved and lost, than to have never loved at
all.
Alfred, Lord Tennyson >
The fate of love is that it always seems too little or too much.
Amelia E Barr
You say that love is nonsense....I tell you it is no such thing.
For weeks and months it is a steady physical pain, an ache about the heart,
never leaving one, by night or by day; a long strain on one's nerves like
toothache or rheumatism, not intolerable at any one instant, but exhausting by
its steady drain on the strength.
Henry Brooks Adams
Love is, above all else, the gift of oneself.
Jean Anouilh
All the privilege I claim for my own sex…is that of loving
longest, when existence or when hope is gone.
Jane Austen
Oh, shadows of love, inebriations of love, foretastes of love,
trickles of love, but never yet the one true love.
Edna O’Brien
O that our love might take no end, or never had beginning took!…
Edward Herbert
Goodnight, good-night! Parting is such sweet sorrow That I shall
say good-night till it be tomorrow.
William Shakespeare
Those who love deeply never grow old; they may die of old age,
but they die young.
Arthur Wing Pinero
