Lovefest: Words from the heart

Could a greater miracle take place than for us to look through each other's eyes for an instant? ~Henry David Thoreau




So today's post was going to have a lot of quotes from books and whatnot, but something happened late last night as I was typing this all out, and for some reason, the latest draft never got saved. =( Here are a few that didn't get lost, though.

Could a greater miracle take place than for us to look through each other's eyes for an instant? ~Henry David Thoreau

Love is a smoke made with the fume of sighs. ~William Shakespeare

You know you're in love when you can't fall asleep because reality is finally better than your dreams. ~Dr. Seuss

Love is like the wind, you can't see it but you can feel it. ~ Nicholas Sparks (A Walk to Remember)

For it was not into my ear you whispered, but into my heart. It was not my lips you kissed, but my soul. ~Judy Garland

Love has no other desire but to fulfill itself. To melt and be like a running brook that sings its melody to the night. To wake at dawn with a winged heart and give thanks for another day of loving. ~Kahlil Gibran

This was love at first sight, love everlasting: a feeling unknown, unhoped for, unexpected -- in so far as it could be a matter of conscious awareness; it took entire possession of him, and he understood, with joyous amazement, that this was for life. ~Thomas Mann

If you have any quotes/excerpts, feel free to share them in the comments. I'd love to read them!
