Love is like a friendship caught on fire. In the beginning a flame, very pretty, often hot and fierce, but still only light and flickering. As love grows older, our hearts mature and our love becomes as coals, deep-burning and unquenchable. ~Bruce Lee
Life only starts when love comes. ~From the movie Bill of Divorcement, 1932
Tell me how many beads there are
In a silver chain
Of evening rain,

And threading the eye of a yellow star: -
So many times do I love again.

Love! Immortality! it speedily became so hot in my breast, that I thought the geographers had misplaced the equator, and that it now ran directly through my heart. And from my heart poured out the feeling of love;—it poured forth with wild longing into the broad night. The flowers in the garden beneath my window breathed a stronger perfume. Perfumes are the feelings of flowers, and as the human heart feels most powerful emotions in the night, when it believes itself to be alone and unperceived, so also do the flowers, soft-minded, yet ashamed, appear to await for concealing darkness, that they may give themselves wholly up to their feelings, and breathe them out in sweet odours. Pour forth, ye perfumes of my heart, and seek beyond yon blue mountain for the loved one of my dreams! ~Heinrich Heine, "The Hartz Journey" (1824), Pictures of Travel, translated from German by Charles Godfrey Leland, 1855

For some it is love undeniably. For others it is making it work, never actually knowing what it is. ~Robert Brault, www.robertbrault.com
Love is the law of life. ~Mohandas Karamchand Gandhi
Candle light, moon light, star light,
The brightest glow is from love light.

Salinger, The Catcher in the Rye, 1945

You see, I'd never stopped to wonder why it was that millions of boys all over creation weren't seeing her and instantly falling in love with her, worshipping her body and mind and soul and spirit as I did. It never occurred to me until this precise moment that maybe lots of boys wouldn't have thought she was gorgeous. Maybe she only seemed so gorgeous to me because - and this is the shocker - her face came alive when I walked in front of it. ~Author Unknown (I got this from Sassy magazine years ago but then lost the magazine - anyone know the attribution?)
Before you love, learn to run through the snow leaving no footprint. ~Turkish Proverb

There's no denying that the only real unhappiness in life is losing a man.... Death isn't nature's greatest mistake - falling in love is.

So, what are you gonna do about it. ~When Ladies Meet, 1941 movie written by Rachel Crothers, John Meehan, Leon Gordon, S.K. Lauren, and Anita Loos, spoken by the character Bridgie Drake (not sure if this is also in the 1933 movie or 1932 play - anyone know?)

like honey in water,
as a drug is mixed into spices,
as water is mingled with wine....
