Lover

Famous quotes containing the word lover:

“I should like a lover to think of the things that I think about. It is all very well being steady when you have got babies of your own; but that should be after ever so long. I should like to keep my lover as a lover for two years. And all that time he should like to dance with me, and to hear music, and to go about just when I would like to go.”
—Anthony Trollope (1815–1882)

“Tomorrow let loveless, let lover tomorrow make love;
O spring, singing spring, spring of the world renew!
In spring lovers consent and the birds marry
When the grove receives in her hair the nuptial dew.”
—Allen Tate (1899–1979)

“Some have for endeavour
To sign away life
As lover to lover....”
—Philip Larkin (1922–1986)
