We are honoring Valentine’s Day this year with a few quotes on love from some of our favorite authors. Don’t forget to write something today!

– William S. Burroughs
“You are nobody, and I might have been somebody, and the road to each of us is love.”
– John Fante
“Love is a response to values. . . . One falls in love with the embodiment of the values that formed a person’s character, which are reflected in his widest goals or smallest gestures, which create the style of his soul — the individual style of a unique, unrepeatable, irreplaceable consciousness.”
– Ayn Rand
“Find what you love and let it kill you.”
– Charles Bukowski
“A lady’s imagination is very rapid; it jumps from admiration to love, from love to matrimony in a moment.”
– Jane Austen
“The one you love and the one who loves you are never, ever the same person.”
– Chuck Palahniuk
