Men always want to be a woman's first love - women like to be a man's last romance
I see when men love women. They give them but a little of their lives. But women when they love give everything
Better to have loved and lost, than not to have loved at all
True love hates and will not bear delay
If you wished to be loved, love
That best portion of a good man's life,
His little, nameless, unremembered acts
Of kindness and of love.
His little, nameless, unremembered acts
Of kindness and of love.
Lines completed a few miles above Tintern Abbey

'Twill make a thing endurable, which else
Would overset the brain, or break the heart.
'Twill make a thing endurable, which else
Would overset the brain, or break the heart.
But how can he expect that others should
Build for him, sow for him, and at his call
Love him, who for himself will take no heed at all?
Build for him, sow for him, and at his call
Love him, who for himself will take no heed at all?
