The most inspiring, beautiful and thought-provoking reflections and
declarations of love, all in one place.
From Shakespeare's sonnets to the rom coms of modern-day cinema,
Enlightenment philosophy to the latest Nicholas Sparks novel, one could
say that no other topic has inspired such beauty - in art, literature,
poetry or music - than that of love.
In The Little Book of Love the words of civil rights activists sit
alongside those of movie stars, world leaders and the philosophers of
Ancient Greece. In its pages you will find some hard-won lovers' wisdom,
a whole host of poignant and inspiring reflections on love, as well as
some of the most famous, endearing and enduring declarations of love
ever spoken.
"Love is not love Which alters when it alteration finds, Or bends with
the remover to remove: O no! it is an ever-fixed mark That looks on
tempests and is never shaken ..." William Shakespeare, "Sonnet 116"
"With the whole world crumbling, we pick this time to fall in love."
Ilsa Lund, Casablanca (1942)
