Quotes

Before I commence with the list, I thought it would be imperative to mention that there will probably be many lists concerning quotes I like, as I have an ever-expanding collection of them.

1. "Love is an irresistable desire to be irresistibly desired." - Robert Frost.

2. "In Heaven, all the interesting people are missing." - Friedrich Nietzche.

3. "A ruffled mind makes a restless pillow." - Charlotte Brontë.

4. "Beauty of whatever kind, in its supreme development, invariably excites the sensitive soul to tears." - Edgar Allan Poe.

5. "To pray to God is to flatter oneself that with words one can alter nature." - Voltaire.

6. "Sensitivity isn't being wimpy. It's about being so painfully aware that a flea landing on a dog is like a sonic boom." - Jeff Buckley.

7. "An eye for an eye only ends up making the whole world blind." - Ghandi.

8. "A wise girl kisses but doesn't love, listens but doesn't believe, and leaves before she is left." - Marilyn Monroe.

9. "If you choose not to decide, you still have made a choice." - René Descartes.

10. "Summer afternoon - summer afternoon... the two most beautiful words in the English language." - Henry James.
