...a battlefield.

You're too young to be quoting Pat Benatar :-)

Nonsense! I saw the Legend of Billie Jean just like everybody else!

If the answer to life, the universe and everything is 42 love might come in in the high 30s or maybe even at 40 or 41 :D

love is always patient and kind. It is never jealous. It is never boastful or conceited. Love does not take offense, and is not resentful. Love takes no joy in other people's sins, but delights in the truth. It is always ready to excuse, to trust, to hope, and to endure whatever comes.

Raise your hand if that was the only thing you enjoyed out of "A Walk To Remember" *raises hand*

...all you need.

“There are only four questions of value in life, Don Octavio.

What is sacred?
Of what is the spirit made?
What is worth living for, and
what is worth dying for?

The answer to each is the same: only love.” - Don Juan DeMarco

Oh sorry. I thought we were still doing movie quotes

I love that film.

What does . mean again? I forgot.

completion of sentence. Love is.

From Dirty Dancing: "If you love me, you have to love every single thing about me! *cries*"
From Cat's Cradle: "God is love."
Matisyahu: "What's this feeling, my love will rip a hole in the ceiling. Givin' myself to you now with the essence of my being and I sing to my god, songs of love and healing. I want Meshiach now.

Sounds like noone really knows what it is.

From Harlan Ellison: "Love ain't nothing but sex misspelled." One of my favorite story titles. Not one of my favorite stories.

This reminds me of a song by Henri Tachan (with a great pun that only works in French) titled Entre l'amour et l'amitié il n'y a qu'un lit de difference

Also from Harlan Ellison:

Of course I know what love is. A boy loves his dog.

Hah! You've seen Matisyahu!

He's such a trip. I mean, who doesn't love Hasidic Reggae?

He's amazing. And he's hassidic. And he can rap (oxymoron).

I just bought his cd online from b&n so it should arive next week, I already have king without a crown.

I saw him a few years ago at the What I Like About Jew show. I liked the Reggae but not the Rap. I grew tired of him pretty quickly.

Love is patient, love is kind, but let's be honest, love is a catalogue of deadly sins.

mmm....Jeffrey Foucault.   :)

Love is home made lasagna, fresh baked bread and a bottle of ruffino chianti :-)

...For Suckers... (not really... but Twisted Sister, eh?)

...just a four letter word.

isn't that bob dylan?

Give the lady a cigar.

Bob Dylan: Love is Just A Four-letter Word

My knowledge of Bob Dylan is well below average. It's a shortcoming that I'm trying to correct. :-)

Bob Dylan did say it, but I'm citing a different song by Mr. Squier.

aww.. beat me to it..

Love has no opposite
-Stuart Davis

Love is sitting in a bath tub with your guts literally hanging out and talking to a friend who makes you forget all about it.

"Love is the most beautiful of dreams and the worst of nightmares."

Sonnet #147

My love is as a fever, longing still
For that which longer nurseth the disease;
Feeding on that which doth preserve the ill,
The uncertain sickly appetite to please.
My reason, the physician to my love,
Angry that his prescriptions are not kept,
Hath left me, and I desperate now approve,
Desire his death, which physic did expect.
Past cure I am, now reason is past care,
And frantic-mad with evermore unrest;
My thoughts and my discourse as madmen's are,
At random from the truth vainly express'd;

For I have sworn thee fair, and thought thee bright,
Who art as black as hell, as dark as night.
