Dear Readers: Wishing you all a very Happy Valentine’s Day. I hope it is filled with lots of love, laughter and joy. Below are some famous quotes about love.
“Doubt thou the stars are fire; Doubt that the sun doth move; Doubt truth to be a liar; But never doubt I love.” — William Shakespeare
“If I should think of love / I’d think of you, your arms uplifted, / Tying your hair in plaits above, / The lyre shape of your arms and shoulders, / The soft curve of your winding head. / No melody is sweeter, nor could Orpheus / So have bewitched. I think of this, / And all my universe becomes perfection. / But were you in my arms, dear love, / The happiness would take my breath away, / No thought could match that ecstasy, / No song encompass it, no other worlds. / If I should think of love, / I’d think of you.” — William Shakespeare
