Love

Suddenly I have an urge to write an essay. Sit back, enjoy, and try not to fall asleep. Unless you have trouble sleeping (I believe the word would be insomnia) and would like to print this out for further snoring later. Or perhaps not an essay. A bunch of quotes. I cannot write a thing today, I couldn't even write an email really, anything worth reading. *sigh* Here goes.

Love is a strange thing. I feel the need to quote Yvaine from Stardust here :

"You know when I said I knew little about love? That wasn't true. I know a lot about love. I've seen it, centuries and centuries of it, and it was the only thing that made watching your world bearable. All those wars. Pain, lies, hate... It made me want to turn away and never look down again. But when I see the way that mankind loves... You could search to the furthest reaches of the universe and never find anything more beautiful. So yes, I know that love is unconditional. But I also know that it can be unpredictable, unexpected, uncontrollable, un-bearable and strangely easy to mistake for loathing, and... What I'm trying to say, Tristan is... I think I love you. Is this love, Tristan? I never imagined I'd know it for myself. My heart... It feels like my chest can barely contain it. Like it's trying to escape because it doesn't belong to me anymore. It belongs to you. And if you wanted it, I'd wish for nothing in exchange - no gifts. No goods. No demonstrations of devotion. Nothing but knowing you loved me too. Just your heart, in exchange for mine."

Forget it. I can't write. Have some quotes instead.

"When you are in love you can't fall asleep because reality is better than your dreams." ~ Dr Seuss

"Love is as much of an object as an obsession, everybody wants it, everybody seeks it, but few ever achieve it, those who do will cherish it, be lost in it, and among all, never... never forget it." ~ Curtis Judalet

"There is no living with thee, nor without thee." ~ Marcus Valerius Martial

"Do you want me to tell you something really subversive? Love is everything it's cracked up to be. That's why people are so cynical about it. It really is worth fighting for, being brave for, risking everything for. And the trouble is, if you don't risk anything, you risk even more." ~ Erica Jong

"Find a guy who calls you beautiful instead of hot, who calls you back when you hang up on him, who will lie under the stars and listen to your heartbeat, or will stay awake just to watch you sleep... wait for the boy who kisses your forehead, who wants to show you off to the world when you are in sweats, who holds your hand in front of his friends, who thinks you' re just as pretty without makeup on. One who is constantly reminding you of how much he cares and how lucky he is to have YOU... The one who turns to his friends and says, thats her.." ~ Unknown

"The hardest thing to do is watch the one you love, love someone else." ~ Anonymous

"Greater love hath no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends." ~ Jesus

"Love is a promise, love is a souvenir, once given never forgotten, never let it disappear." ~ John Lennon

The End. In big, fancy, romantic letters.

I'm such a moron. Thank you. ok bye now.
