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.

Truth-loving Persians do not dwell upon
The trivial skirmish fought near Marathon.
To love for the sake of being loved is human, but to love for the sake of loving is angelic.

When you come right down to it, the secret of having it all is loving it all.
