If it is your time, love will track you down like a cruise missile. -Lynda Barry American Cartoonist, Painter, Essayist Young love is a flame; very pretty, often very hot and fierce, but still only light and flickering.

Why do birds suddenly appear? Why do birds suddenly appear, every time you are near? It is because you are a statue, my dear. Birds, mostly of the pigeon-icarus variety, like suddenly appearing and putting the poop upon the statues. All you have to do is move a little and this will scare the birds away. No, really why do birds suddenly appear? Birds appear out of nowhere because you are in an Alfred Hitchcock movie. You are a hapless victim with a bull's-eye upon your scalp and angry birds want to hurt you. These birds want nothing better than to peck your eyes out and make small nests within your ears. No, stop teasing, why do birds suddenly appear? With the decline of the telecom industry the carrier pigeon is coming back into favor. Don't worry - he won't hurt you. He is only bringing you a message from a friend. "You've got mail." ....You never know Secret! Maybe someone at your workplace *singing* Longs to beeeeee......close to yoooou.. IP: Logged |

How true. Now if only that could make sense to a virgo man! His quote would be: Happiness is a china shop. If love is the bull then who needs it? Why would you want to wreck a perfectly good china shop? *grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr*IP: Logged |

I was feeling just the opposite until I came here. First I made my secret new moon wish, then I found this thread and *snap* just like that, my new moon wish came true!That sounds so over the top, but it's so true, too. Weird... And, certainly you can borrow these quotes. I borrowed 'em myself! IP: Logged |

"When love beckons to you follow him, Though his ways are hard and steep. And when his wings enfold you yield to him, Though the sword hidden among his pinions May wound you. And when he speaks to you believe in him, Though his voice may shatter your dreams As the north wind lays waste the garden. For even as love crowns you so shall he crucify you. Even as he is for your growth So is he for your pruning." (From The Prophet by Gibran Khalil Gibran)

Let me not to the marriage of true minds Admit impediments. Love is not love Which alters when it alteration finds, Or bends with the remover to remove: O no! it is an ever-fixed mark That looks on tempests and is never shaken; It is the star to every wandering bark, Whose worth's unknown, although his height be taken. Love's not Time's fool, though rosy lips and cheeks Within his bending sickle's compass come: Love alters not with his brief hours and weeks, But bears it out even to the edge of doom. If this be error and upon me proved, I never writ, nor no man ever loved. William Shakespeare (Sonnet 116) IP: Logged |

There's beauty in the silver singing river There's beauty in the sunrise in the sky But none of these and nothing else can match the beauty That I remember in my true love's eyes - - -Bob Dylan, "Tomorrow is a Long Time" IP: Logged |

I wonder if you really knew, that I see God in you And I wonder if you can see, how much you mean to me I know you cannot read my mind, but I hope you feel my vibe I think it's time I let you know that, I see the God in youEvery time that I see your face, I wonder, what lies beneath your smile What are your dreams, what are your fears, what does your heart hold dear I know, that you don't know me at all But if you know yourself, well then you know me very well India.Arie IP: Logged |

Love's Philosophy by Percy Bysshe ShelleyThe fountains mingle with the river And the river with the ocean, The winds of heaven mix forever With a sweet emotion; Nothing in the world is single; All things by a law divine In one spirit meet and mingle. Why not I with thine? - See the mountains kiss high heaven And the waves clasp one another; No sister-flower would be forgiven If it disdained its brother; And the sunlight clasps the earth And the moonbeams kiss the see: What is all this sweet work worth If thou kiss not me?

I went to a school in Madrid named after Tagore. Just made me go when I saw his quote."Small love, big love, I don't care Love's all good love to me" - George Harrison. "Love takes off masks that we fear we cannot live without and know we cannot live within." - James Baldwin (Who is that? Found it on a quote website). IP: Logged |

"Love comes to those who wait for it, trust it and don't question it when it does finally come.""I thought I loved him, but he had to break my heart for me to know what true love really is." Anonymous "The best thing about loving and being hurt is that you get to know what true love really is. For as gold is tested in fire, and so will love be perfected in pain." Marvin Jay M. Torres "Love and electricity are one in the same, my dear. If you do not feel the jolt in your soul every time a kiss is shared, a whisper is spoken, a touch is felt, then your not really in love at all." C. J. Franks "I've loved you all my life. Even before there was you there was the promise of you, and now that we've met, I'll never be the same!" "Forever is not a word...rather a place where two lovers go when true love takes them there." "Never underestimate the power because love can do miracles which you never thought possible." IP: Logged |

I can hear her heart beat for a thousand miles And the heavens open every time she smiles And when I come to her that’s where I belong Yet I’m running to her like a river’s songChorus: She give me love, love, love, love, crazy love She give me love, love, love, love, crazy love She’s got a fine sense of humor when I’m feeling low down And when I come to her when the sun goes down Take away my trouble, take away my grief Take away my heartache, in the night like a thief Chorus: Yes I need her in the daytime Yes I need her in the night Yes I want to throw my arms around her Kiss her hug her kiss her hug her tight And when I’m returning from so far away She gives me some sweet lovin’ brighten up my day Yes it makes me righteous, yes it makes me feel whole Yes it makes me mellow down in to my soul Van Morrison - Crazy Love IP: Logged |
