Eros, the invincible in Battle, Eros, you who descend upon riches, and watch the night through on a girl’s soft cheek, you roam over the sea and among the homes of men in the wilds. Neither can any immortal escape you, nor any man whose life lasts for a day. He who has known you is driven to madness. ( Sophocles ).
O My Luve ’s like a red, red rose. That ’s newly sprung in June. O my Luve ’s like the melodie. That’s sweetly play’d in tune. And I will luve thee still, my dear Till a’ the seas gang dry. Till a’ the seas gang dry, my dear. And the rocks melt wi’ the sun. I will luve thee still, my dear.While the sands o’ life shall run. (Robert Burns)
A kiss is a lovely trick, designed by nature, to stop words when speech becomes superfluous. (Ingrid Bergman).

“There’s nothing sexier than an intimate promise, made lovingly to one special person, and kept true to, even in the face of alluring opportunity”

“World is crazier and more of it than we think,
Incorrigibly plural. I peel and portion
A tangerine and spit the pips and feel
The drunkenness of things being various.”
From ‘Snow’ by Louis MacNeice
Less about romantic love maybe, but about the overwhelming feeling of life and living in it, and love is part of that.
