“Love, love, love — all the wretched cant of it, masking egotism, lust, masochism, fantasy under a mythology of sentimental postures, a welter of self-induced miseries and joys, blinding and masking the essential personalities in the frozen gestures of courtship, in the kissing and the dating and the desire, the compliments and the quarrels which vivify its barrenness.”–Germaine Greer
“The worst feeling in the world is giving all the love you have and knowing it will never be returned.”–Unknown Source
“Love cures people, both the ones who give it and the ones who receive it.” —Dr. Karl Menninger
“The pain of love is the pain of being alive. It is a perpetual wound.”–Maureen Duffy
“When a boy sweeps you off your feet, he’s in the perfect position to drop you on your ass.”–Unknown Source

“There are things that we don’t want to happen but have to accept, things we don’t want to know but have to learn, and people we can” live without but have to let go.”– Unknown Author
“It’s funny how a person can break your heart, and you can still love them with all the little pieces.”–Unknown Author
