A Love Story

Famous quotes containing the words love and/or story:

    true pleasure
    Lives in measure,
    Which if men forsake,
    Blinded they into folly run and grief for pleasure take.
    —Unknown. Love Winged My Hopes and Taught Me How to Fly (l. 3–6)

    We have defined a story as a narrative of events arranged in their time-sequence. A plot is also a narrative of events, the emphasis falling on causality. “The king died and then the queen died” is a story. “The king died, and then the queen died of grief” is a plot. The time sequence is preserved, but the sense of causality overshadows it.
    —E.M. (Edward Morgan)
