Who loves, raves
Like the measles, love is most dangerous when it comes late in life
You must make a lover angry if you wish him to love
To love is a pleasure of youth, a sin in old age
Love is a canvas furnished by nature and embroidered by imagination
Love has features which pierce all hearts, he wears a bandage which conceals the faults of those beloved. He has wings, he comes quickly and flies away the same
Absence sharpens love, presence strengthens it
If you would be loved, love and be lovable
There is room in the smallest cottage for a happy loving pair
Love conquers all
