A brief look at love through the eyes of a few.

There is always some madness in love. But there is also always some reason in madness.
Friedrich Nietzsche (1844 - 1900)

Of all forms of caution, caution in love is perhaps the most fatal to true happiness.
Bertrand Russell (1872 - 1970)

Anxiety is love's greatest killer. It makes others feel as you might when a drowning man holds on to you. You want to save him, but you know he will strangle you with his panic.
Anais Nin (1903 - 1977)

When we lose one we love, our bitterest tears are called forth by the memory of hours when we loved not enough.
Maurice Maeterlinck (1862 - 1949)

One word frees us of all the weight and pain of life: That word is love.
Sophocles (496 BC - 406 BC)

Age does not protect you from love. But love, to some extent, protects you from age.
Jeanne Moreau

When you have loved as she has loved, you grow old beautifully.
W. Somerset Maugham

As the 14th, gets closer and closer, it is hard not to think about our loved ones. With each passing day try to remember to say something "nice" or "endearing" to that loved one. You might read this, and laugh. For those of us who have lost someone, or realised the errors in our ways, we know how important it is. You never know when that loved one, is no longer there for you to love. There are a million things I wish I could take back, but the one I would trade my life for. Would be the ability to show love to someone, who deserved that tiny courtesy. Do me a favor this coming holiday. Show someone you care about, that you love them. Not by buying their love. Not by just saying it. Show Them. If you don't know how, don't worry your heart will tell you! Deviant @ 11:09 PM

"The path of the righteous man is beset on all sides by the inequities of the selfish and the tyranny of evil men. Blessed is he, who in the name of charity and good will, shepherds the weak through the valley of darkness, for he is truly his brother's keeper and the finder of lost children. And I will strike down upon thee with great vengeance and furious anger those who would attempt to poison and destroy my brothers. And you will know my name is the Lord when I lay my vengeance upon thee." -Jules (Pulp Fiction)
