Mother, here is Thy knowledge and here is Thy ignorance. Take them both, and give me only pure love.
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.
Happiness does away with ugliness, and even makes the beauty of beauty.
If there is no love more in yonder heart, it is but a corpse unburied.
It is a miserable thing to love where one hates; and yet it is not inconsistent.
The purest and most thoughtful minds are those which love colour the most.
Know thou that the love of thyself is more hurtful to thee than anything in the world.
