"If I were God, I certainly wouldn't want people to love me sentimentally. It's too unreliable."
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.
My heart, have you no wisdom thus to despair?
My love, my love, my love, why have you left me alone?
I love my government not least for the extent to which it leaves me alone.
To be in love
Is to touch with a lighter hand.
In yourself you stretch, you are well.
