People only realize what
they had after they lose it,
so hold onto what you have
and never let it go

As you look back upon your life,
you find the times when
you have most lived, are the times
when you have lived for love

I wanted everything to stay the same
but feelings fade and people change
I'm living every moment like its my last
No longer letting my future be based on my past

Love is as much of an object as an obsession,
everybody wants it,
everybody seeks it,
but few ever achieve it,
those who do will cherish it,
be lost in it, and among all,
never... never forget it.

Love vanquishes time.
To lovers, a moment can be eternity,
eternity can be the tick of a clock.

To love and be loved
is to feel the sun from both sides.

Love is like war:
Easy to begin but hard to end.

I would give up everything
for one moment with you;
for one moment is better
than a lifetime of not knowing you

Oh, the comfort, the inexpressible comfort of feeling safe with a person, having neither to weigh thoughts nor measure words, but pouring them all out, just as they are, chaff and grain together, certain that a faithful hand will take and sift them, keep what is worth keeping, and with a breath of kindness blow the rest away.
George Eliot (Mary Ann Evans)

Edward Young

I shot an arrow into the air,
It fell to earth, I knew not where;
For so swiftly it flew, the sight
Could not follow it in its flight.
I breathed a song into the air,
It fell to earth, I knew not where;
For, who has sight so keen and strong
That it can follow the flight of song?
Long, long afterward, in an oak
I found the arrow, still unbroke;
And the song, from beginning to end,
I found again in the heart of a friend.
Henry Wadsworth Longfellow

If you're alone, I'll be your shadow. If you want to cry, I'll be your shoulder. If you want a hug, I'll be your pillow. If you need to be happy, I'll be your smile. But anytime you need a friend, I'll just be me.
Author Unknown

I want to be your friend
For ever and ever without break or decay.
When the hills are all flat
And the rivers are all dry,
When it lightens and thunders in winter,
When it rains and snows in summer,
When Heaven and Earth mingle -
Not till then will I part from you.
Chinese 1st century AD, translated Arthur Waley

John Evelyn

Make new friends, but keep the old;
Those are silver, these are gold.
New-made friendships, like new wine,
Age will mellow and refine.
Friendships that have stood the test -
Time and change - are surely best;
Brow may wrinkle, hair grow gray,
Friendship never knows decay.
For 'mid old friends, tried and true,
Once more we our youth renew.
But old friends, alas! may die,
New friends must their place supply.
Cherish friendship in your breast-
New is good, but old is best;
Make new friends, but keep the old;
Those are silver, these are gold.
Joseph Parry

We have been friends together
In sunshine and in shade.
Caroline Sheridan Norton
