Only a romantic at heart?

To the people who know me well, it is a given that I'm a romantic at heart. I mean, who else has an app on their iTouch called Love Quotes? I figure I might as well write down some of the quotes that have touched me recently. Perhaps someday I'll look back on this and realize how much my definition of love has changed over time. It's certainly quite different than it was a year ago. But without further ado, my (currently) favorite love quotes in no particular order:

1. "Love will find a way. Indifference will find an excuse."

2. "It is with true love as it is with ghosts; everyone talks about it, but few have seen it."

3. "I have said nothing because there is nothing I can say that would describe how I feel as perfectly as you deserve it."

4. "If you aren't good a loving yourself, you will have a difficult time loving anyone, since you'll resent the time and energy you give another person that you aren't even giving to yourself."

5. "When you are always on my mind and my heart hurts when you are gone, what is it that I feel if it is not love?"

6. "Absence from the person you love is only healthy in theory."

7. "I see my fated stars in your eyes. They melt me like the sun does snow."

8. "If you have something to say, say it now; if you have something to give, give it now; if you have something to do, do it now; before it's too late for she already found the courage of hearing it from someone else."

9. "To be your friend was all I ever wanted; to be your love was all I ever dreamed."

10. "The rose speaks of love silently, in a language known only to the heart."

11. "Forget love...I'd rather fall in chocolate."

12. "We are all a little weird and life's a little weird, and when we find someone whose weirdness is compatible with ours, we join up with them and fall in mutual weirdness and call it love."

13. "Love endures only when the lovers love many things together and not merely each other."

14. "Just because someone doesn't love you the way you want them to, doesn't mean they don't love you with all they have."

15. "Love takes off masks that we fear we cannot live without and know we cannot live within."

16. "Give her two red roses, each with a note. The first note says 'For the woman I love' and the second, 'For my best friend'."

17. "I love you, not for what you are, but for what I am when I am with you."

18. "There is no disguise which can hide love for long where it exists, or simulate it where it does not."

19. "What most people need to learn in life is how to love people and use things instead of using people and loving things."

20. I love it when people tell me how difficult their relationships are when they don't even bother to treasure what is right in front of them. But for all you other lovers who persevere because you love, then I'll tell you this: "Yes, it is hard, bitterly hard, but there is a long distance between hard and impossible." And sometimes all you gotta do is believe.

Oh and if you're wondering, yes it's probably illegal to post all of these without who they're from. Oh well.
