“I fall in love too terribly hard
For love to ever last.”

“I fall in love with everything I also hate everything. It’s very hard to be a misanthrope and a romantic.”

Marilyn Manson (1969) American rock musician and actor

“Much has been written of love turning to hatred, of the heart growing cold with the death of love. It is a remarkable process. It is far more terrible than anything I have ever read about it, more terrible than anything I will ever be able to say.”

James Baldwin book Giovanni's Room

“To lose love is a terrible thing. But to turn away from it is unbearable. Will you spend the rest of your life replaying it in your head? Wondering if you walked away too soon or too easily? Or if you'll ever love anyone that deeply again?”

Kristin Hannah (1960) American writer

“It's easy to fall in love. The hard part is finding someone to catch you.”

Bertrand Russell (1872–1970) logician, one of the first analytic philosophers and political activist

“Last time I saw you, I said that it hurt too much to love you. But I was wrong about that. The truth is it hurts too much not to love you”

Kristin Cast (1986) American writer

“Last time I saw you, I said that it hurt too much to love you. But I was wrong about that. The truth is it hurts too much not to love you.”

P. C. Cast (1960) American writer

“I was determined that in fiction anyway two men should fall in love and remain in it for the ever and ever that fiction allows.”

E.M. Forster (1879–1970) English novelist

“Love moderately. Long love doth so.
Too swift arrives as tardy as too slow.

*Love each other in moderation. That is the key to long-lasting love. Too fast is as bad as too slow.”

William Shakespeare book Romeo and Juliet

“It was love at first sight, at last sight, at ever and ever sight.”

Vladimir Nabokov book Lolita
