MY BOUNTY IS AS BOUNDLESS AS THE SEA
MY LOVE AS DEEP; THE MORE I GIVE TO THEE
THE MORE I HAVE, FOR BOTH ARE INFINITE
William Shakespeare, Romeo and Juliet
Young love is a flame; very pretty often very hot and fierce, but still only light and flickering. The love of the older and disciplined hearts is as coals, deep-burring , unquenchable.
Henry Ward Beecher
