It was Valentine’s day yesterday and ‘love was in the air’. Well to be fair, love is ‘in the skies’ most of the time for me as I am not that great in that department. Oh, hell yes I do love! and I love my wife, my friends and many other things. I even consider myself a romantic, but in all honesty I think we tend to delute so many things in life that I must be careful and refrain from any bold statements! Surely, there are way too many around meaning nothing;(

Anyway, I thought of keeping this post short and sweet! l’ve watched a bunch of romantic movies in my time which had some great love quotes in it. Here is a short list on the Love themes I’ve collected. Some of these quotes represent dialogues that have stirred some ripples in one small heart. And love…being a many splendid thing, embraces all kinds of human relationships, and transcends cultures and boundaries.
