If you love something so much let it go. If it comes back it was meant to be; if it doesn't it never was

---

Let us begin this letter, this prelude to an encounter, formally, as a declaration, in the old-fashioned way: I love you. You do not know me (although you have seen me, smiled at me). I know you (although not so well as I would like. I want to be there when your eyes flutter open in the morning, and you see me, and you smile. Surely this would be paradise enough?). So I do declare myself to you now, with pen set to paper. I declare it again: I love you.

I believe that everything happens for a reason. People change so that you can learn to let go, things go wrong so that you appreciate them when they're right, you believe lies so you eventually learn to trust no one but yourself, and sometimes good things fall apart so better things can fall together. - Marilyn Monroe

The human heart is a strange vessel. Love and hatred can exist side by side. ― Scott Westerfield

I love those who yearn for the impossible. ― Johann Wolfgang von Goethe

There is something to me very softening in the presence of a woman, some strange influence, even if one is not in love with them, which I cannot at all account for, having no very high opinion of the sex. But yet, I always feel in better humor with myself and every thing else, if there is a woman within ken.

The good life is one inspired by love and guided by knowledge. - Bertrand Russell

It is love, not reason, that is stronger than death.
