You don't have to go looking for love when it's where you come from.
~ Werner Erhard.
It is the same in love as in war; a fortress that parleys is half taken.
~ Marguerite de Valois.
It would be impossible to "love" anyone or anything one knew completely. Love is directed towards what lies hidden in its object.
~ Paul Valéry, Tel quel, 1943.
Love never reasons but profusely gives; gives, like a thoughtless prodigal, its all, and trembles lest it has done too little.
~ Hannah More (Thanks, Steven).
