Love does not die easily. It is a living thing. It thrives in the face of all life's hazards, save one - neglect. ~ James Bryden Some pray to marry the man they love, my prayer will somewhat vary: I humbly pray to Heaven above that I love the man I marry. ~ Rose Stokes Romantic love is a passionate spiritual-emotional-sexual attachment between a man and a woman that reflects a high regard for the value of each other's person. ~ Nathaniel Branden Listening is an attitude of the heart, a genuine desire to be with another which both attracts and heals. ~ J. Isham The most eloquent silence; that of two mouths meeting in a kiss. ~ Unknown All love that has not friendship for its base, is like a mansion built upon the sand. ~ Ella Wheeler Wilcox
