Lover

Famous quotes containing the word lover:

“The opposite of love is not to hate but to separate. If love and hate have something in common it is because, in both cases, their energy is that of bringing and holding together—the lover with the loved, the one who hates with the hated. Both passions are tested by separation.”
—John Berger (b. 1926)

“I care not what the sailors say:
All those dreadful thunder-stones,
All that storm that blots the day
Can but show that Heaven yawns;
Great Europa played the fool
That changed a lover for a bull.”
—William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)

“One can be a soldier without dying, and a lover without sighing.”
—Edwin, Sir Arnold (1832–1904)
