It's true: All you need is love

| February 14, 2021 1:00 AM

Nothing like an impeachment trial to put people in a romantic mood.

Sorry. Poor attempt at humor there.

But today is Valentine’s Day, and while romance is the order of this occasion, it’s the underlying, deeper love we celebrate.

Here’s hoping these words of wisdom put you in the mood to remember what really matters in life. (Hint: It’s not politics.)

"Life is the flower for which love is the honey." — Victor Hugo

"Love is composed of a single soul inhabiting two bodies." — Aristotle

"Love makes your soul crawl out from its hiding place." – Zora Neale Hurston

"Nobody has ever measured, even poets, how much a heart can hold." –Zelda Fitzgerald

"Lots of people want to ride with you in the limo, but what you want is someone who will take the bus with you when the limo breaks down.” — Oprah Winfrey

"Love is something sent from heaven to worry the hell out of you." — Dolly Parton

"Love is an irresistible desire to be irresistibly desired." — Robert Frost

"The giving of love is an education in itself." — Eleanor Roosevelt

"Love is the whole thing. We are only pieces.” — Rumi

"Where there is love there is life." – Mahatma Gandhi

Happy Valentine's Day, everybody.
