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.
"I am because we are. We all bleed the same color. We all want to love and be loved."
I hate and love. Why I do so, perhaps you ask. I know not, but I feel it, and I am in torment.
"If I were God, I certainly wouldn't want people to love me sentimentally. It's too unreliable."
My heart, have you no wisdom thus to despair?
My love, my love, my love, why have you left me alone?
I love my government not least for the extent to which it leaves me alone.
Ah, ah, thy beauty! like a beast it bites,
Stings like an adder, like an arrow smites.
