  1. 1. "A kiss is a lovely trick, designed by nature, to stop words when speech becomes superfluous."

    --Ingrid Bergmen

    2. Love is a temporary madness. It erupts like an earthquake and then subsides. And when it subsides you have to make a decision. You have to work out whether your roots have become so entwined together that it is inconceivable that you should ever part. Because this is what love is. Love is not breathlessness, it is not excitement, it is not the promulgation of promises of eternal passion. That is just being "in love" which any of us can convince ourselves we are.

    Love itself is what is left over when being in love has burned away, and this is both an art and a fortunate accident. Your mother and I had it, we had roots that grew towards each other underground, and when all the pretty blossom had fallen from our branches we found that we were one tree and not two.

  2. The poem stop all the clocks - W H Auden

    Stop all the clocks, cut off the telephone,

    Prevent the dog from barking with a juicy bone,

    Silence the pianos and with muffled drum

    Bring out the coffin, let the mourners come.

    Let aeroplanes circle moaning overhead

    Scribbling on the sky the message He Is Dead,

    Put crepe bows round the white necks of the public doves,

    Let the traffic policemen wear black cotton gloves.

    He was my North, my South, my East and West,

    My working week and my Sunday rest,

    My noon, my midnight, my talk, my song;

    I thought that love would last for ever: I was wrong.

    The stars are not wanted now: put out every one;

    Pack up the moon and dismantle the sun;

    Pour away the ocean and sweep up the wood.

    For nothing now can ever come to any good.

    Is not exactly a happy love poem but does sum up all consuming love.

    Made more famous by being read at one of the funerals in Four Weddings and a Funeral.

    Gives me a lump in my throat such a poem!

  7. He doesn't know it, but I look at him and can't help but smile and maybe when it's meant to be, he'll notice and smile back at me.

    You know you're in love when the hardest thing to say is goodbye.

    I started thinking about you and going through old pictures. Wondering why I love you so much and then I started crying. I had no explanation. There is just something about you that makes me love you so much... and you don't even know.

    I ran up the door, closed the stairs, said my pajamas, and put on my prayers. Turned off the bed and hopped into the light, all because you kissed me good night.

    Love: If you love someone put their name in a circle and not a heart. A heart can be broken, but a circle goes on forever.

    Fine guys open my eyes, smart guys open my mind, but only a sweet guy can open my heart.

    How can you be friends with someone if every time you look at them it makes you want them even more?

    I dropped a tear in the ocean, the day I find it will be the day I'll stop loving you.

    Someday you'll be sorry, someday when you're free. Memories will remind you that we were meant to be.

    I'm not supposed to love you. I'm not supposed to care. I'm not supposed to spen my whole life wishing you were there. But I do, cuz...well...I'm in love with you.

    Listen to your heart before you tell him goodbye.

    Nobody wanna see us together, but it don't matter no cause i got you babe.

    I don't run from you, I walk away slowly. And it kills me because you don't care enough to stop me.

    Before I met you I never knew what it was like to look at someone and smile for no reason.

    He gave her twelve roses. 11 real and 1 fake and said, "I'll love you untill the last one dies"

    I get the best feeling when you smile at me because I know that for just one second I crossed your mind.

    Why can't I breathe whenver I think about you. Why can't I speak whenever I talk about you.

    I'm so scared that I'll want to love you forever and you'll only want me for a few moments in your life.

    I'm just a crazy girl who loves this boy way too much.

    Ask anyone. When his name comes into conversation, her eyes sparkle.

    I'm the type of girl... Who will burst out laughing at something that happened yesterday.

    What happens if you get scared half to death twice?

    You asked what was wrong and I said nothing. Then I turned around and whispered everything.

    Sometimes when I say "Oh I'm fine" I want some one to look me in the eyes and say "Tell the truth"

    I wished I was a white crayon so I'd never be used.

    Do.You.Remember.When.

    Getting high meant swinging on the playground...the worst thing boys could do to you ws give you cooties!  Mom was your hero and you were marrying daddy...Wearing skirts didn't mean you were a s**t and war was just a card games. Only skinned knees hurt and the only things that got broken were toys.  We only smoked bike tires and life was so carefree. It's crazy thinking back on all of this and how I had wanted to

    Just.Grow.Up.

    What matters most is how you see yourself.

    I spend too much time thinking about things that will never happen and dressing up for the boys that will never care.

    If you can make a girl laugh you can make her do anything.
