I collect quotes, so there's no way I could pick just one. Here are a few of my favorites:

"You don't love a woman because she is beautiful. She is beautiful because you love her."

“Everybody is a genius. But if you judge a fish by its ability to climb a tree, it will live its whole life believing that it is stupid.” --Albert Einstein

"Rings and other jewels are not gifts, but apologies for gifts. The only gift is a portion of thyself." --Ralph Waldo Emerson

"No animal should ever jump on the dining room furniture unless absolutely certain he can hold his own in conversation." --Fran Lebowitz

I don't know what that means, but it sounds cool. Maybe I should put it in my signature so I'll seem smart. :chin:

"Uncomfortable silences. Why do we feel it's necessary to yak about BS in order to be comfortable?...That's when you know you've found somebody special. When you can just shut the eff up for a minute and comfortably enjoy the silence."-
