  • My heart to you is given: Oh, do give yours to me; We'll lock them up together, And throw away the key.

  • Birds do it, bees do it, even educated fleas do it; let's do it, let's fall in love.

  • As I make my slow pilgrimage through the world, a certain sense of beautiful mystery seems to gather and grow.

  • My beautiful soul,"he murmured and caressed my cheek."When you have the ultimate selfless sacrifice it paid my wrong.You proved to be worthy of my devotion.Of Death's...love.

  • I don't know much, but I know I love you... that may be all there is to know.

  • One rarely falls in love without being as much attracted to what is interestingly wrong with someone as what is objectively healthy.

  • Every fall into love involves the triumph of hope over self-knowledge. We fall in love hoping we won't find in another what we know is in ourselves, all the cowardice, weakness, laziness, dishonesty, compromise, and stupidity. We throw a cordon of love around the chosen one and decide that everything within it will somehow be free of our faults. We locate inside another a perfection that eludes us within ourselves, and through our union with the beloved hope to maintain (against the evidence of all self-knowledge) a precarious faith in our species.

  • It is necessary to fall in love... if only to provide an alibi for all the random despair you are going to feel anyway.

  • Some say we can't choose who we fall in love with; love chooses us. Sometimes people fall for the complete antithesis of everything they believe they're looking for.

  • You can't make yourself fall in love, just as you can't choose who you fall in love with.
