Truths About Love !

You say that love is nonsense....I tell you it is no such thing. For weeks and months it is a steady physical pain, an ache about the heart, never leaving one, by night or by day; a long strain on one's nerves like toothache or rheumatism, not intolerable at any one instant, but exhausting by its steady drain on the strength.

-- Henry Adams.

Love does not begin and end the way we seem to think it does. Love is a battle, love is a war; love is a growing up.

-- James Baldwin.
