What kind of a girlfriend am I? I'm not sentimental. Valentine's day makes me laugh. I mean, even the corny "For us, everyday is Valentine's Day" thing doesn't move me. I don't have a favourite love song. Last night I read this mail, one of those 'love quotes' mail which Rahul must've sent, just to get me into that sappy mood. Some of them were unbelievably sad. Like "Death cannot stop true love; it can only delay it for a little while." I mean when you're about to die, I definitely think you'll have bigger worries than that. I deleted all the crappy "I love you, not only for what you are, But for what I am when I am with you." What is that??
Anyway that mail worked for about 5 hours, I guess, and here's the reason why.
My personal favourite---
"Love is a temporary madness. It erupts like an earthquake and then subsides. And when it subsides you have to make a decision. You have to work out whether your roots have become so entwined together that it is inconceivable that you should ever part. Because this is what love is. Love is not breathlessness, it is not excitement, it is not the promulgation of promises of eternal passion. That is just being "in love" which any of us can convince ourselves we are.
Love itself is what is left over when being in love has burned away, and this is both an art and a fortunate accident. Your mother and I had it, we had roots that grew towards each other underground, and when all the pretty blossom had fallen from our branches we found that we were one tree and not two."
--Captain Corelli's Mandolin
"A kiss is a lovely trick, designed by nature, to stop words when speech becomes superfluous."
--Ingrid Bergmen
"... See there's this place in me where your fingerprints still rest, your kisses still linger, and your whispers softly echo. It's the place where a part of you will forever be a part of me."
--Gretchen Kemp
"Love is but the discovery of ourselves in others, and the delight in the recognition."
--Alexander Smith
"The soul that can speak with its eyes can also kiss with a gaze."
--Unknown
"The most powerful symptom of love is a tenderness which becomes at times almost insupportable."
--Victor Hugo
"Love is the emblem of eternity: it confounds all notion of time: effaces all memory of a beginning, all fear of an end."
--Germaine De Stael
"The most eloquent silence; that of two mouths meeting in a kiss."
--Unknown
"Love is like a friendship caught on fire."
--Bruce Lee
HAPPY VALENTINE'S WEEKEND everyone.(Whatever that is!! hahaha)
{There! I deleted most of it okay?? :)}
