Lovers

Famous quotes containing the word lovers:

    The bottle is drunk out by one;
    At two, the book is shut;
    At three, the lovers lie apart,
    Love and its commerce done....
    Philip Larkin (1922–1986)

    Many lovers have been divorced
    By having what is free enforced.
    Robert Frost (1874–1963)

    We become lovers when we see Romeo and Juliet, and Hamlet makes us students. The blood of Duncan is upon our hands, with Timon we rage against the world, and when Lear wanders out upon the heath the terror of madness touches us. Ours is the white sinlessness of Desdemona, and ours, also, the sin of Iago.
    Oscar Wilde (1854–1900)
