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.

In the first days
Of my distracting grief, I found myself
As women wish to be who love their lords.
Scarcely a tear to shed;
Hardly a word to say;
The end of a Summer's day;
Sweet Love is dead.
A woman's best love letters are always written to the man she is betraying.
As the birds do love the spring,
Or the bees their careful king.
One, two, three, four, five, six, nine, and ten
Money can't buy you back the love that you had then.
