“First love is a kind of vaccination which saves a man from catching the complaint the second time.”
Honore de Balzac
“The minute I heard my first love story I started looking for you, not knowing how blind that was. Lovers don't finally meet somewhere. They're in each other all along.”
Jalal ad-Din Rumi
“Men always want to be a woman's first love - women like to be a mans last romance.”
Oscar Wilde
“Every man is thoroughly happy twice in his life: just after he has met his first love, and just after he has left his last one”
Henry Louis Mencken
“A man always remembers his first love with special tenderness, but after that he begins to bunch them.”
“My first love is film, always. I wanted to be an actor. That was my dream as a young man, ... Now it's a whole lot better to be the guy behind the camera. This is the area where I really do my best stuff. It doesn't matter what you look like or if your hair's right.”
Joe Simpson
“Bowling was my first love. Beating my mother for the first time when I was 13 or 14 was a major accomplishment. I had big glasses. I was a pretty smart kid, maybe nerdy, but I always had a good street sense.”
Jerome Bettis
