LOVE

Whom the gods love dies young.
Menander - The Double Deceiver

There is only one happiness in life,
to love and be loved
George Sand

Gather therefore the Rose, whilst yet is prime,
For soon comes age, that will her pride deflower:
Gather the Rose of love, whilst yet is time.
Edmund Spenser - The Faerie Queen

When will this long weary day have end,
And lend me leave to come unto my love?
Edmund Spenser
