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.
If there's any answer, maybe love can end the madness
Maybe not, oh, but we can only try.
You may find many a brighter one
Than your own rose, but there are none
So true to thee, Love.
I want you to make love, not war, I know you've heard it before.
'Tis better to have loved and lost,
Than never to have loved at all.
All-powerful Love! what changes canst thou cause
In human hearts, subjected to thy laws!
I think, am sure, a brother's love exceeds
All the world's loves in its unworldliness.
Love thou, and if thy love be deep as mine,
Thou wilt not laugh at poets.
Thy fatal shafts unerring move;
I bow before thine altar, Love!
God be thanked that there are some in the world to whose hearts the barnacles will not cling.
Beauty, like truth, never is so glorious as when it goes the plainest.
Where there is the greatest love, there are always miracles.
Be loving, and you will never want for love; be humble, and you will never want for guiding.
