Valentine's Day Quotes
This page has no collection of its own behind it. It is built from the pages on love, romance and beauty, so it is very large and not selective. Use it as a place to start, and check what you pick.
The check matters more for love than for most topics, because so many of the famous lines are not what they seem. “Choose a job you love” is not Confucius, and “God made beer because he loves us” is probably a garbled Franklin on wine. See the Love page for both. If you are going to put a quote in a card, look at the label next to it first.
Beauty is something that disappears when you try to define it.
There is only one thing infamous in love, and that is a falsehood.
There is an evening twilight of the heart,
When its wild passion-waves are lulled to rest.
The surest way to hit a woman’s heart is to take aim kneeling.
World-peace can be achieved when the power of love replaces the love of power.
