Set a course for adventure

For you, for Valentine's day, some quotes. Use with caution.

What happiness to be beloved; and O,
What Bliss, ye gods, to love!
--Goethe

It is love, and not German philosophy, that is the true explanation of life in this world, whatever may be the explanation of the next.
--Oscar Wilde

Life's short and we never have enough time for the hearts of those who travel the way with us. O, be swift to love! Make haste to be kind.
--Henri Frederic Amiel

Love is a naked child: do you think he has pockets for money?
--Ovid

Don't threaten me with love, baby. Let's just go walking in the rain.
--Billie Holiday

It doesn't matter what you do in the bedroom as long as you don't do it in the streets and frighten the horses.
--Mrs. Patrick Campbell

I want to do with you
What spring does
With the cherry trees.
--Pablo Neruda


Oh hasten not this loving act,
Rapture where self and not-self meet:
My life has been the awaiting you
Your footfall was my own heart's beat.
--Paul Valery
