"Life has taught us that love does not consist in gazing at each other but in looking outward together in the same direction." ~Antoine de Saint-Exupéry, Wind, Sand and Stars, 1939, translated from French by Lewis Galantière
"Sometimes it's a form of love just to talk to somebody that you have nothing in common with and still be fascinated by their presence." ~David Byrne
"You know you're in love when you don't want to fall asleep because reality is finally better than your dreams." ~Ted Geisel aka Dr. Seuss
"Gravitation is not responsible for people falling in love." ~Albert Einstein (PWN'D!)
"Substitute "damn" every time you're inclined to write "very;" your editor will delete it and the writing will be just as it should be." ~Mark Twain (Alas, I still have trouble with my "very"s... XDDD;;;;)
"Tragedy is when I cut my finger. Comedy is when you fall into an open sewer and die." ~Mel Brooks
"Critics who treat adult as a term of approval, instead of as a merely descriptive term, cannot be adult themselves. To be concerned about being grown up, to admire the grown up because it is grown up, to blush at the suspicion of being childish; these things are the marks of childhood and adolescence. And in childhood and adolescence they are, in moderation, healthy symptoms. Young things ought to want to grow. But to carry on into middle life or even into early manhood this concern about being adult is a mark of really arrested development. When I was ten, I read fairy tales in secret and would have been ashamed if I had been found doing so. Now that I am fifty I read them openly. When I became a man I put away childish things, including the fear of childishness and the desire to be very grown up." ~C.S. Lewis
"Personally, I would sooner have written Alice in Wonderland than the whole Encyclopedia Britannica." ~Stephen Leacock
