TO
MY COLLECTION OF
LOVE QUOTES
My interest in collecting Love quotes started a few months ago whilst surfing the web. Now, I have decided to share some of my collection with everyone. I have no problem with anyone wanting to copy any of them. My only request is that you give credit to the person who said it. Ok, read on......
You are my heart and my soul,
I cannot live without my heart,
And yet, I cannot die without my soul

what wind is to fire;
It extinguishes the small,
It kindles the great

Nor for itself hath any care,
But for another gives it ease,
And builds a heaven in Hell's despair.

carry the heavy burden of responsibility
and to discharge my duties as king
as I would wish to do without
the help and support of the
woman I love.

in this life of ours,than the

the first fluttering of its
silken wings.

the happiness of the person loved.

But women when they love give everything.

Leave the fingers open and it stays.
Clutch it, and it darts away.

Locks may lose their brown and gold,
Cheeks may fade and hollow grow,
but the hearts who love will know,
Never winter's frost and chill,
Summer's warmth is in them still.
Eben Eugene Rexford
To love oneself is the beginning
of a lifelong romance.

The mind has a thousand eyes,
And the heart but one;
Yet the light of a whole life dies
When love is done.
