• The first time I saw you, I knew I loved you and you smiled because you knew —Anonymous
• You may not be her first, her last, or her only. She loved before, she may love again. But if she loves you now, what else matters? She's not perfect - you aren't either, and the two of you may never be perfect together but if she can make you laugh, cause you to think twice, and admit to being human and making mistakes, hold onto her and give her the most you can. She may not be thinking about you every second of the day, but she will give you a part of her that she knows you can break - her heart. So don't hurt her, don't change her, don't analyze and don't expect more than she can give. Smile when she makes you happy, let her know when she makes you mad, and miss her when she's not there. —Bob Marley.

From Napoleon:

• "...apart from you there is no joy; away from you, the world is a desert where I am alone and cannot open my heart. You have taken more than my soul; you are the one thought of my life."
• "...the day I lose your heart will be the day Nature loses warmth and life for me."
• "Love me like your eyes; but that is not enough: like yourself, more than yourself, than your thoughts, your life, all of you."
• "Nature is frail when one feels deeply, when one is loved by you."
• "I shall go to bed without you, sleep without you. Let me sleep, I beg you. For several nights I have felt you in my arms; a happy dream, but it is not you."
