Take each other, leave each other, seek each other in turn:
Nothing is real but dreams and love.
Anniversary Quotes
There is no anniversary collection behind this page. It is put together from the pages on love, marriage, romance and time, then sorted by quality, so what comes up first is whatever those four pages rate highest.
Expect poems and passages from novels more than card lines. Some of the best material here only works with the sentences around it, which is why each quote links to its own page with the source and the notes. If you plan to put one in print, check the flag first: a line marked misattributed is fine to enjoy and risky to credit.
I love everything that's old: old friends, old times, old manners, old books, old wines.
Now, so far as I can judge, self-love is the root of all evil
If you love me, be patient. Look at the trees. Are they in a hurry to ripen their fruit?
Call it peace or call it treason,
Call it love or call it reason,
But I ain't marching anymore!
Fountain heads and pathless groves,
Places which pale passion loves.
No, love is an ephemeral and illusive concept, it doesn't last; lust lasts.
When I was young
I never needed anyone
And making love was just for fun
Those days are gone.
