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.
Ah, majesty and love go ill together,
Nor long share one abode!
If nothing is delightful without love and jokes, then live in love and jokes.
Now there's no point in placing the blame
And you should know I'd suffer the same
A heart can no more be forced to love than a stomach can be forced to digest food by persuasion.
A man may be a fool and not know it — but not if he is married.
O'er her warm cheek and rising bosom move
The bloom of young Desire and purple light of Love.
The song within your heart could never rise
Until love bade it spread its wings and soar.
