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 thou must love me, let it be for nought
Except for love's sake only.
The truth is, indeed, that love is the threshold of another universe.
If we are bold, love strikes away the chains of fear from our souls.
The hunger for love is much more difficult to remove than the hunger for bread.
The loves and hours of the life of a man,
They are swift and sad, being born of the sea.
Women and love are underpinnings. Examine them and you threaten the very structure of culture.
