The above is what we seek but:
Love is blind, and lovers cannot see
the pretty follies that themselves commit.
William Shakespeare
If I could read you like a book,
Or like a wizard's glass of old,
I might discover why you look
So cold.
My fate runs ringing through my brain,
I am a fool to love you so;
Will all my rashness be in vain,
Or no?
Edmund Gosse
Love never dies of starvation,
but often of indigestion.
French Proverb
