Quote DB :: Authors :: Mark Twain :: View Quote View Quote "Love seems the swiftest, but it is the slowest of all growths. No man or woman really knows what perfect love is until they have been married a quarter of a century." - Copy to Clipboard   --  Mark Twain Listed in: Love Add Quote To Your Quote List   Rating: 4  Rate Quote 9 votes submitted Your Name: Friend's Email: Sponsored Links Top 5 quotes from Mark Twain "It is better to keep your mouth closed and let people think you are a fool than to open it and remove all doubt." "Always do right - this will gratify some and astonish the rest." "It ain't what you don't know that gets you into trouble. It's what you know for sure that just ain't so." "I have never let my schooling interfere with my education." "It's not the size of the dog in the fight, it's the size of the fight in the dog." Top 5 quotes from Love "Where there is no exaggeration there is no love, and where there is no love there is no understanding." "Love never dies a natural death. It dies because we don't know how to replenish it's source. It dies of blindness and errors and betrayals. It dies of illness and wounds; it dies of weariness, of witherings, of tarnishings." "You have to walk carefully in the beginning of love; the running across fields into your lover's arms can only come later, when you're sure they won't laugh if you trip." "Love anything and your heart will be wrung and possibly broken. If you want to make sure of keeping it intact you must give it to no one, not even an animal. Wrap it carefully round with hobbies and little luxuries; avoid all entanglements. Lock it up safe in the casket or coffin of your selfishness. But in that casket, safe, dark, motionless, airless, it will change. It will not be broken; it will become unbreakable, impenetrable, irredeemable. To love is to be vulnerable." "Love is an irresistible desire to be irresistibly desired."
