Mae West

Love conquers all things except poverty and toothache!

Good sex is like good bridge. If you don’t have a good partner, you’d better have a good hand.

A man has one hundred dollars and you leave him with two dollars, that’s subtraction!

Sometimes the heart is deceiving.

You first.’ The only way love works.

When you plant a seed of love, it is you that blossoms.

When a man is in love or in debt, someone else has the advantage.

Never close your lips to those whom you have already opened your heart.

When you love someone, you love the person as they are, and not as you’d like them to be.

In my sex fantasy, nobody ever loves me for my mind.

When love awakens in your life, in the night of your heart, it is like the dawn breaking within you. Where before there was anonymity, now there is intimacy; where before there was fear, now there is courage; where before in your life there was awkwardness, now there is a rhythm of grace and gracefulness; where before you used to be jagged, now you are elegant and in rhythm with your self. When love awakens in your life, it is like a rebirth, a new beginning.

Have you ever been so melancholy, that you wanted to fit in the palm of your beloved’s hand? And lie there, for fortnights, or decades, or the length of time between stars? In complete silence?

You’ll never get away from the sound of the woman that loves you.

It is most unwise for people in love to marry.

It’s amazing what passes for love these days – crows parading as blue jays.

Drownin’ in the sea of love where everyone would love to drown.

She doesn’t let me have control anymore. I must’ve crossed a line, I must’ve lost my mind.

Love is that condition in which the happiness of another person is essential to your own.
