Love is like an hourglass, with the heart filling up as the brain empties.
- Jules Renard
One advantage of marriage, it seems to me, is that when you fall out of love with him, or he falls out of love with you, it keeps you together until maybe you fall in again.
- Judith Viorst
Love is a thing, well, its kind of like quicksand:
The more you are in it, the deeper you sink.
And when it hits you, you've just got to fall.
- UB40
Love doesn't grow on trees like apples in Eden - it's something you have to make. And you must use your imagination too.
- Joyce Cary
Love is like an hourglass, with the heart filling up as the brain empties.
- Jules Renard
Never judge someone by who he's in love with; judge him by his friends. People fall in love with the most appalling people. Take a cool, appraising glance at his pals.
- Cynthia Heimel
It's not the men in my life that count -- it's the life in my men.
- Mae West (1892-1980)
Grow old along with me, the best is yet to be.
- Robert Browning
My heart still hovering sound about you,
I thought I could not live without you;
Now we have lived three months asunder
How I lived with you is the wonder.
- Robert, Earl Nugent
Stay, O Sweet, and do not rise,
The light that shines comes from thine eyes;
The day breaks not, it is my heart,
Because that you and I must part.
Stay, or else my joys will die,
And perish in their infancy.
- Anon. 16th Century
O, Love, love, love!
Love is like a dizziness;
It winna let a poor body
Gang about his biziness!
- James Hogg 1770-1835
What men call gallantly, and gods adultery,
Is much more common where the climate's sultry.
- Lord Byron 1788-1824
Absence sharpens love, presence strengthens it.
- Fuller 1732
Try to reason about love and you will lose your reason."
- French Proverb
