Loves change sure as man or moon, and wane like warm full days of
June.--_Joaquin Miller._

Take of love as a sober man takes wine; do not get drunk.--_Alfred de
Musset._

Love is the admiration and cherishing of the amiable qualities of the
beloved person, upon the condition of yourself being the object of their
action. The qualities of the sexes correspond. The man's courage is
loved by the woman, whose fortitude again is coveted by the man. His
vigorous intellect is answered by her infallible tact. Can it be true,
what is so constantly affirmed, that there is no sex in souls? I doubt
it--I doubt it exceedingly.--_Coleridge._

As love increases prudence diminishes.--_Rochefoucauld._

Never self-possessed, or prudent, love is all abandonment.--_Emerson._

The desire to be beloved is ever restless and unsatisfied; but the love
that flows out upon others is a perpetual well-spring from on high.--_L.
M. Child._

Love is love's reward.--_Dryden._

There is no fear in love, for perfect love casteth out fear.--_Bible._

The pale complexion of true love.--_Shakespeare._

Love has no middle term; it either saves or destroys.--_Victor Hugo._

Young love is a flame; very pretty, often very hot and fierce, but still
only light and flickering. The love of the older and disciplined heart
is as coals, deep-burning, unquenchable.--_Beecher._

In love's war, he who flies is conqueror.--_Mrs. Osgood._

Where there is room in the heart there is always room in the
house.--_Moore._

Love's like the measles, all the worse when it comes late in
life.--_Douglas Jerrold._

Only they conquer love who run away.--_Carew._

The heart's hushed secret in the soft dark eye.--_L. E. Landon._
