"I will make love my greatest weapon and none on who I call can defend
against its force....My love will melt all hearts liken to the sun whose
rays soften the coldest day."
"Life without you would be like a broken pencil." "How's that?" "Completely
pointless." (Blackadder, Series II)
"Passion may be blind; but to say that love is, is a libel and a lie.
Nothing is more sharp-sighted or sensitive than true love, in discerning,
as by an instinct, the feelings of another." -William Henry Davis
"The treasures of the deep are not so precious as are the concealed
comforts of a man in a woman's love: I scent the air of blessings when I
come but near the house." -Thomas Middleton
"In true love the smallest distance is too great, and the greatest distance
can be bridged." -Hans Nouwens
Love is not blind -- it simply enables one to see things others fail to
see.
--Anonymous
Love is, above all, the gift of oneself.
--Jean Anouilh
Where there is great love, there are always miracles.
--Willa Cather (1876-1947)
Pure love and suspicion cannot dwell together: at the door where the latter
enters, the former makes its exit.
--Alexandre Dumas (1802-1870)
Love is a little blind. When we love someone dearly, we unconsciously
overlook many thoughts.
--Beatrice Saunders

partner's hand, knowing they will be handled with care.
--Carl S. Avery

--John Powell
The greatest happiness in life is the conviction that we are loved- loved
for ourselves, or rather, loved in spite of ourselves.
--Victor Hugo
Everybody can be great because anybody can serve. You don't have to have
college degree to serve. You don't have to make your subject and verb agree
to serve. You only need a heart full of grace. A soul generated by love.
--Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. (1929-1968)
Smile at each other; smile at your wife, smile at your husband, smile at
your children, smile at each other- it doesn't matter who it is- and that
will help you to grow up in greater love for each other.
--Mother Teresa
The prerequisite for making love is to like someone enormously
--Helen Gurley Brown
An act of love that fails is just as much a part of the divine life as a
act of love that succeeds, for love is measured by fullness, not by
reception
--Harold Loukes
It is wrong to think that love comes from long companionship and
persevering courtship. Love is the offspring of spiritual affinity and
unless that affinity is created in a moment, it will not be created for
years or even generations
--Kahlil Gibran
Miracles occur naturally as expressions of love. The real miracle is the
love that inspires them. In this sense everything that comes from love is
miracle.
--Marianne Williamson
One word frees us of all the weight and pain of life: that word is love.

Love is a fruit in season at all times, and within reach of every hand.

My candle burns at both ends, it will not last the night But ah, my foes
and oh, my friends, It gives a lovely light!

A relationship is like a rose, How long it lasts, no one knows; Love can
erase an awful past, Love can be yours, you'll see at last; To feel that
love, it makes you sigh, To have it leave, you'd rather die; You hope
you've found that special rose, 'Cause you love and care for the one you
chose.
--Rob Cella
For those passionately in love, the whole world seems to smile.
--David Myers
Love takes off masks that we fear we cannot live without and know we cannot
live within.
--James Baldwin
Nothing is lovely without love itself, and nothing is lovelier than love
itself.
--Devan Penegar
It is better to break one's heart than to do nothing with it.
--Margaret Kennedy
The magic of the first love is the ignorance that it can never end.
--Disraeli
Love is always present, it is just a matter of feeling it or not.
--Kimberly Kirberg
To love at all is to be vulnerable.
--C.S. Lewis

Forever in Their Eyes
By Nancy B. Gibbs
Early one morning, I witnessed romance at one of the least-expected places
in the world - a long-term care facility. At the time, my father shared a
room with three other gentlemen. While it wasn't an ideal situation, it was
the best the administrator could do at the time.
A few days before this particular visit, an elderly couple was admitted to
the facility. Since there wasn't a double room available, they were forced
to separate the couple. The gentleman, Mr. West (name has been changed) was
placed in the bed beside Daddy. His wife, Mrs. West, shared a room with
several other ladies down the hall.
When I went to see Daddy that morning, I met Mr. West. Three employees were
working with him. He hadn't eaten a bite of food since he was admitted
several days earlier. I could tell by the expression on the nurses' faces
that they were worried about him. While one nurse was trying to get him to
open his mouth with spoonfuls of gelatin, another nurse was trying to coax
him to drink a health shake from a straw. The third nurse was standing
nearby with a cup of water. Mr. West refused to open his mouth for any of
them.
"Let's try this," one of the nurses said. She pulled out a lollipop, tore
off the paper and offered it to Mr. West. His lips were clamped together
tightly. He refused to listen to reason. Finally, he uttered something
about his sweetheart, who was resting down the hall.
"Go get Mrs. West," the nurse instructed her helper, while handing her the
lollipop. "Maybe Mr. West will eat for her."
In a few minutes a kind-looking lady was wheeled into the room. She held
the lollipop in her hand. Her smile was contagious and Mr. West smiled
brightly. I felt as though I was intruding on a private moment, but I
couldn't take my eyes off the couple. The love between them was obvious, as
Mrs. West patted Mr. West's hand and then caressed his forehead.
With a soft voice, Mrs. West convinced Mr. West to eat. To everyone's
surprise Mr. West opened his mouth and began to enjoy the lollipop and his
wife's company. While the nurses fed him, he stared at his sweetheart with
a smile on his face. Mrs. West began humming a tune to him. The expression
on his once solemn face became even brighter.
Tears filled my eyes. The nurse then pulled the curtain around the couple
to give them some quality time alone to visit. I discovered that romance
doesn't only exist when we're young and in love. Romance lasts a lifetime
and grows stronger with age. Before long I heard snores of contentment
coming from the bed beside me.
Today, Mr. and Mrs. West reside together in a place where there are no
limitations, nursing homes or wheelchairs. There are no tears in their eyes
or rooms dividing them. I am convinced that the West marriage went well
beyond "till death us do part" and will last throughout eternity. Not only
did I witness a memorable romance that day, I saw a glimpse of forever in a
loving couple's tired and worn-out eyes.
