“The Ruffed Padanga of Borneo and Rotherham spreads out his feathers in his courtship dance and imitates Winston Churchill and Tommy Cooper on one leg. The padanga is dying out because the female padanga doesn't take it too seriously.”
Mike Harding
“It is wrong to think that love comes from long companionship and persevering courtship. Love is the offspring of spiritual affinity and unless that affinity is created in a moment, it will not be created for years or even generations”
Kahlil Gibran
“It is wrong to think that love comes from long companionship and persevering courtship. Love is the offspring of spiritual affinity and unless that affinity is created in a moment, it will not be created for years or even generations.”
Khalil Gibran
“There is a rhythm to the ending of a marriage just like the rhythm of a courtship /only backward. You try to start again but get into blaming over and over. Finally you are both worn out, exhausted, hopeless. Then lawyers are called in to pick clean the corpses. The death has occurred much earlier.”
Erica Jong
“In courtship a man pursues a woman until she catches him”
Proverb
“This is courtship all the world over - the man all tongue; the woman all ears”
Emily Murphy
“It was a very spasmodic courtship, conducted mainly at long distance with a great clanking of coins in dozens of phone booths.”
Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis
