“I claim there ain't Another Saint As great as Valentine.”
Ogden Nash
“Must, bid the Morn awake! Sad Winter now declines, Each bird doth choose a mate; This day's Saint alentine's. For that good bishop's sake Get up and let us see What beauty it shall be That Fortune us assigns.”
Michael Drayton
“I pray thee leave, love me no more, / Call home the heart you gave me, / I but in vain the saint adore, / That can, but will not, save me.”
“One word frees us of all the weight and pain of life: that word is love.”
Sophocles
“Let me not to the marriage of true minds admit impediments. Love is not love which alters when it alteration finds, or bends with the remover to remove.”
William Shakespeare
“Love does not cause suffering: what causes it is the sense of ownership, which is love's opposite”
Antoine de Saint-Exupery
“Oh, if it be to choose and call thee mine, love, thou art every day my Valentine!”
Thomas Hood
