tales of love

Some quotes I've read n heard:
  • A man may plant his seed anywhere he wishes to, it's a woman's job to restrict it to one- Everybody Loves Raymond
  • I don't love you enough to hate you-Kamasutra
  • The opposite of love is not hate. it's indifference. if you hate someone, means u still care-Desperate Housewives
  • Have you ever been in love? Horrible isn't it? It makes you so vulnerable. It opens your chest and it opens up your heart and it means that someone can get inside you and mess you up. You build up all these defenses, you build up a whole suit of armor, so that nothing can hurt you, then one stupid person, no different from any other stupid person, wanders into your stupid life...You give them a piece of you. They didn't ask for it. They did something dumb one day, like kiss you or smile at you, and then your life isn't your own anymore. Love takes hostages. It gets inside you. It eats you out and leaves you crying in the darkness, so simple a phrase like 'maybe we should be just friends' turns into a glass splinter working its way into your heart. It hurts. Not just in the imagination. Not just in the mind. It's a soul-hurt, a real gets-inside-you-and-rips-you-apart pain. I hate love- Neil Gaiman

  • You know when i hate you, it's because i love you to a point of passion that unhinges my soul- Julie de Lespinasse
  • Meeting you was fate, becoming your friend was choice, but falling in love with you i had no control over
  • No woman hates a man for being in love with her, but many a woman hate a man for being a friend to her- Alexander pope
  • oh, I've loved him too much to feel no hate for him- J Baptiste Racine
  • I must learn to love the fool in me the one who feels too much, talks too much, takes too many chances, wins sometimes and loses often, lacks self-control, loves and hates, hurts and gets hurt, promises and breaks promises, laughs and cries- Theodore Isaac Rubin

okie i found this once on google search for love and hate...n before u ask, the reason i was lookin was because i felt just like what he's tryin to say!!
but i don't hate love all the time...like i don't hate people i 'love'...i just become indifferent till someone comes crashin thru again!
sigh!
