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.

And hissing Infamy proclaims the rest.

Our love is a strong love, baby.
We give it all
And still receive.
In order to love your enemies, you must begin by analyzing self.
The darkness of racial injustice will be dispelled only by the light of forgiving love.
