Various Thoughts On Love
========================

It is wrong to think that love comes from long companionship and
persevering courtship. Love is the offspring of spiritual
affinity and unless that affinity is created in a moment,
it will not be created for years or even generations.
Khalil Gibran

It is with true love as it is with ghosts; everyone talks about it,
but few have seen it.
Francois de La Rouchefoucauld

Love begins with a smile, grows with a kiss,
and ends with a teardrop.

Success is nothing, without someone you love to share it with.
Billy Dee Williams in the movie, Mahogany

Love cures people, both the ones who give it and the ones who
receive it.
Dr. Karl Menninger

Love does not consist in gazing at each other, but in looking
outward together in the same direction.
Antoine de Saint-Exupery

Love is a fire. But whether it is going to warm your hearth or
burn down your house, you can never tell.
Joan Crawford

Love is the answer, but while you're waiting for the answer,
sex raises some pretty good questions.
Woody Allen

Sex without love is an empty experience, but, as empty
experiences go, it's one of the best.
Woody Allen (again)

Love is an ideal thing, marriage a real thing;
a confusion of the real with the ideal never goes unpunished.
Johann Wolfgang von Goethe (1749-1832)

Age does not protect you from love but love to some extent
protects you from age.
Jeanne Moreau

Beware you be not swallowed up in books! An ounce of love is
worth a pound of knowledge.
John Wesley

Better to have loved a short man than never to have loved a tall.
David Chambless

Immature love says: "I love you because I need you."
Mature love says: "I need you because I love you."
Erich Fromm

Absence is to love what wind is to fire;
it extinguishes the small, it enkindles the great.
Comte DeBussy-Rabutin

A woman has got to love a bad man once or twice in her life
to be thankful for a good one.
Mae West (1892-1980)

A man in love is incomplete until he is married.
Then he's finished.
Zsa Zsa Gabor

In the arithmetic of love, one plus one equals everything,
and two minus one equals nothing.
Mignon McLaughlin

Hatred paralyzes life; love releases it. Hatred confuses life;
love harmonizes it.
Hatred darkens life; love illumines it.
Martin Luther King, Jr. (1929-1968)

I recently read that love is entirely a matter of chemistry.
That must be why my wife treats me like toxic waste.
David Bissonette

There is only one kind of love,
but there are a thousand imitations.
Francois de La Rouchefoucauld

To keep your marriage brimming, with love in the wedding cup,
whenever you're wrong, admit it; whenever you're right, shut up.
Ogden Nash

The course of true love never did run smooth.
William Shakespeare

You can't buy love, but you can pay heavily for it.
Henny Youngman

Where there is marriage without love,
there will be love without marriage.

Men always want to be a woman's first love,
women like to be a man's last romance.
Oscar Wilde (1854-1900)

Never frown because you never know who might be falling in love
with your smile.
Justine Milton

No woman marries for money; they are all clever enough,
before marrying a millionaire, to fall in love with him first.
Cesare Pavese

Love looks through a telescope; envy, through a microscope.
Josh Billings

No matter how lovesick a woman is,
she shouldn't take the first pill that comes along.
Joyce Brothers

Quote from Juno: "The best thing you can do is find a person who loves you for exactly what you are. Good mood, bad mood, ugly, pretty, handsome, what have you, the right person's still gonna think the sun shines out your ass."

That's hilarious.

I've always written this on shower cards because they're words of wisdom:

You don't marry just one person. You marry three of them.
You marry the person you think they are.
You marry the person that they really are.
And you marry the person that they will become as a result of being married to you.

Other than that, Love Stinks!

Love isnt blind, it just has bad eyesight

Woah, that's deep.

One of my favorites...I'd put it in my sig if it fit.

"Relationships don't work the way they do on television and in the movies. Will they? Won't they? And then they finally do, and they're happy forever. Gimme a break. Nine out of ten of them end because they weren't right for each other to begin with, and half of the ones who get married get divorced anyway, and I'm telling you right now, through all this stuff I have not become a cynic. I haven't. Yes, I do happen to believe that love is mainly about pushing chocolate covered candies and, y'know, in some cultures, a chicken. You can call me a sucker, I don't care, because I do believe in it. Bottom line: it's couples that are truly right for each other wade through the same crap as everybody else, but the big difference is they don't let it take them down. One of those two people will stand up and fight for that relationship every time. If it's right, and they're real lucky, one of them will say something."

-Dr. Cox, Scrubs

MrCleveland · 02-04-2009, 06:29 PM

I've been made blue, I've been lied to.
When will I be loved?
I've been turned-down, I've been pushed around.
When will I be loved?

Phil Everly of the Everly Brothers (Later sung by Linda Ronstadt).
