Famous quotes containing the word love:
“Welcome the comming of the long’d-for May.
Now all things smile; onely my Love doth lowre;
Nor hath the scalding noon-day sunne the power
To melt that marble yce, which still doth hold
Her heart congeal’d, and makes her pittie cold.”
—Thomas Carew (1589–1639)
