With so many holidays requiring gifts, cards and other thoughtful gestures, the brain can sometimes run dry on how to express all of those sweet sentiments we feel, but rarely say.
But, don’t give up and start writing something like, “Roses are red…”
You can do better than that.
Or, at least they will think you can – once you start using these quotes about love.
These short, sweet sayings put words to your feelings and make it a breeze to fill in those empty cards just leering, I mean, staring at you.
That’s why I love using quotes in cards and in my writing. It makes it so easy to be romantic, even if you’re exhausted.
If you love quotes as much as I do, you can even pick up books like a quotationary. Yes, that’s a thing, lol.
So, let’s take a look at the sweetest love quotes on the internet, organized by celebrity, songs, writers, books, and movies and bring the magic!
