It's easy if you only try, don't lie down on the job, because once we hit the top there's no stopping us.

What is love?


"Love is a temporary madness. It erupts like an earthquake and then subsides. And when it subsides you have to make a decision. You have to work out whether your roots have become so entwined together that it is inconceivable that you should ever part. Because this is what love is. Love is not breathlessness, it is not excitement, it is not the promulgation of promises of eternal passion. That is just being "in love" which any of us can convince ourselves we are. Love itself is what is left over when being in love has burned away, and this is both an art and a fortunate accident. Your mother and I had it, we had roots that grew towards each other underground, and when all the pretty blossom had fallen from our branches we found that we were one tree and not two."
-St. Augustine


"Love has no other desire but to fulfill itself. To melt and be like a running brook that sings its melody to the night. To wake at dawn with a winged heart and give thanks for another day of loving."
-Kahlil Gibran


"Love is everything it's cracked up to be. That's why people are so cynical about it...It really is worth fighting for, risking everything for. And the trouble is, if you don't risk everything, you risk even more."
-Erica Jong


"The most wonderful of all things in life is the discovery of another human being with whom one's relationship has a growing depth, beauty and joy as the years increase. This inner progressiveness of love between two human beings is a most marvelous thing; it cannot be found by looking for it or by passionately wishing for it. It is a sort of divine accident, and the most wonderful of all things in life."
-Sir Hugh Walpole

What is love--to me?


"Love to me is being able to be at each other's throats, and still know that we love one another. Love to me is being able to have the constant re-assurance in the back of your head that no matter what time of day, I can call the person and that person will answer. Love to me is being able to stand in front of them stark naked, with nothing on, unshaven, sweaty and unwell--and still be accepted. Love to me is being able to have full on conversations without uttering a single word. Love to me is repeatedly having butterflies in my stomach every single time I see that person smile; no matter how often it happens. Love to me is being able to compromise all that was once held dear. Love to me is being able to talk about anything and everything under the sun. Love to me is being able to tell what the person wants by how the person is conveying it. Love to me is knowing how that person feels without even looking at them. Love, to me--has been these past 6 months. Love, to me? -- is her."
