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.
Got only one heart/One heart with no spares/Must save it for loving/Somebody who cares
Love is either rewarded with reciprocation, or with secret contempt.
Socrates … said the subtlest thing of all: that the lover was nearer the divine than the beloved.
