- Quotes by Henry Louis Mencken
“To be in love is merely to be in a state of perpetual anaesthesis – to mistake an ordinary young man for a Greek god or an ordinary young woman for a goddess”. - Quotes by Groucho Marx
“Send two dozen roses to Room 424 and put ” Emily, I love you” on the back of the bill”. - Quotes by Andrew Marvell
“My Love is of a birth as rare, As ’tis for object strange and high: It was begotten by despair, Upon Impossibility. As Lines so Loves oblique may well, Themselves in every Angel greet: But our so truly Paralel, Though infinite can never meet”. - Quotes by Martial
“I do not loveSabidius, and I cannot say why: this only I can say, I do not love you”.
- Quotes by Christopher Marlowe
“Was this the face that launch’d a thousand ships, And burnt the topless towers of Ilium? Sweet Helen, make me immortal with a kiss. O, thou art fairer than the evening air, Clad in the beauty of a thousand stars. Thou hast committed – Fornication: but that was in another country; and besides, the wench is dead. It lies not in our power to love, or hate, For will in us is over-rul’d by fate. Where both deliberate, the love is slight; Whoever loved that loved not at first sight? Come live with me, and be my love, And we will all the pleasures prove, That hills and valleys, dales and fields, Woods or steepy mountain yields”.
