Short love poems

Es tan corto el amor, y tan largo el olvido. (Love is so short, and forgetting is so long.)

Sometimes love will pick you up by the short hairs...and jerk the heck out of you.

Any great truth can -- and eventually will -- be expressed as a cliche -- a cliche is a sure and certain way to dilute an idea. For instance, my grandmother used to say, 'The black cat is always the last one off the fence.' I have no idea what she meant, but at one time, it was undoubtedly true.

Solomon Short

I almost think it is the ultimate destiny of science to exterminate the human race.

Thomas Love Peacock

We went through ten years of the Limp Bizkit thing, and I didn't know what to do.

Courtney Love

I pretend I'm one of the royal family when I'm in a hotel and that the hotel belongs to me - it is a palace.

Martin Short

Everything you do is always the best you could do at the time given the budget, the constraints, the reality of it.

Martin Short

The Middle East is more angry than ever. I'm afraid that the sort of deceit on the route to war was linked to the lack of preparation for afterwards and the chaos and suffering that continuous - so it won't go away will it?

Clare Short

To fear love is to fear life, and those who fear life are already three parts dead.

Bertrand Russell

What else is love but understanding and rejoicing in the fact that another person lives, acts, and experiences otherwise than we do…?

Friedrich Nietzsche

Age does not protect you from love. But love, to some extent, protects you from age.

Jeanne Moreau

Is love supposed to last throughout all time, or is it like trains changing at random stops. If I loved her, how could I leave her? If I felt that way then, how come I don't feel anything now?

Jeff Melvoin

Just because you love someone doesn't mean you have to be involved with them. Love is not a bandage to cover wounds.

Hugh Elliott

Let me not to the marriage of true minds Admit impediments: love is not love Which alters when it alteration finds.

William Shakespeare

There is always some madness in love. But there is also always some reason in madness.

Friedrich Nietzsche

Love is everything it's cracked up to be…It really is worth fighting for, being brave for, risking everything for.

Erica Jong

For one human being to love another; that is perhaps the most difficult of all our tasks, the ultimate, the last test and proof, the work for which all other work is but preparation.

Rainer Maria Rilke

Perhaps the feelings that we experience when we are in love represent a normal state. Being in love shows a person who he should be.

Anton Chekhov

Oh, life is a glorious cycle of song, A medley of extemporanea; And love is a thing that can never go wrong; And I am Marie of Romania.

Dorothy Parker

All love that has not friendship for its base, is like a mansion built upon sand.

Ella Wheeler Wilcox

Love isn't a decision. It's a feeling. If we could decide who we loved, it would be much simpler, but much less magical.

Trey Parker and Matt Stone

Before I met my husband, I'd never fallen in love, though I'd stepped in it a few times.

Rita Rudner

Never pretend to a love which you do not actually feel, for love is not ours to command.

Alan Watts

To be brave is to love someone unconditionally, without expecting anything in return. To just give. That takes courage, because we don't want to fall on our faces or leave ourselves open to hurt.

Madonna

I don’t think anyone can DO anything that would make him worthy of love. Love is a gift and cannot be earned. It can only be given.
