Otomo No Yakamochi
This was love at first sight, love
everlasting: a feeling unknown,
unhoped for, unexpected--in so far
as it could be a matter of
conscious awareness; it took entire
possession of him, and he
understood, with joyous amazement,
that this was for life.
* Thomas Mann
We are not the same persons this
year as last; nor are those we
love. It is a happy chance if we,
changing, continue to love a
changed person.
* W. Somerset Maugham
Romantic love is an illusion. Most
of us discover this truth at the end
of a love affair or else when the
sweet emotions of love lead us into
marriage and then turn down their
flames.
* Thomas Moore
A man reserves his true and
deepest love not for the species of
woman in whose company he finds
himself electrified and enkindled, but
for that one in whose company he
may feel tenderly drowsy.
* George Jean Nathan

love. But there is also always some
reason in madness.
* Friedrich Nietzsche
Family love is messy, clinging, and
of an annoying and repetitive pattern,
like bad wallpaper.

Love is a driver, bitter and fierce if
you fight and resist him,
Easy-going enough once you
acknowledge his power.

vain--we must always love
something. In those matters
seemingly removed from love, the
feeling is secretly to be found, and
man cannot possibly live for a
moment without it.
* Blaise Pascal
Love, free as air at sight of human
ties,
Spreads his light wings, and in a
moment flies.
* Alexander Pope
Love makes the time pass. Time
makes love pass.
* French Proverb
Love is something far more than
desire for sexual intercourse; it is
the principal means of escape from
the loneliness which afflicts most
men and women throughout the
greater part of their lives.
* Bertrand Russell
Love is a spirit of all compact of
fire.
* William Shakespeare
Love looks not with the eyes, but
with the mind;
And therefore is winged Cupid
painted blind.

Love sought is good, but given
unsought, is better.
* William Shakespeare
The course of true love never did
run smooth.
* William Shakespeare
They do not love that do not show
their love.
* William Shakespeare
We cease loving ourselves if no one
loves us.
* Madame De Staël
'Tis better to have loved and lost
Than never to have loved at all.
* Lord Tennyson
There is no remedy for love but to
love more.
* Henry David Thoreau
If so many men, so many minds,
certainly so many hearts, so many
kinds of love.
* Leo Tolstoy
Love has features which pierce all
hearts, he wears a bandage which
conceals the faults of those beloved.
He has wings, he comes quickly
and flies away the same.
* Voltaire
Love is what we were born with.
Fear is what we learned here.
* Marianne Williamson
everlasting: a feeling unknown,
unhoped for, unexpected--in so far

* Oscar Wilde
This was love at first sight, love
everlasting: a feeling unknown,

conscious awareness; it took entire
possession of him, and he
understood, with joyous amazement,
that this was for life.

Spreads his light wings, and in a

fire.
* William Shakespeare
Love looks not with the eyes, but
