Quotations on Love

The marriage CD project is now in full swing and almost all the vocals have been recorded.  We are now working on adding live instrumentation to the pieces.  I look forward to going over all the songs with Jarome, hearing the different live instruments that were recently recorded and choosing the best parts.  I did not have the opportunity to do that in person with Jarome for the ‘Fire and Gold’ CD and am cherishing the chance to do so this time. As I had written in a previous blog, this next CD will be accompanied by a special booklet which will include quotations on love and marriage.  I am compiling quotations and am including quotes and lovely sayings from different sources that are inspirational and enchanting.  If you come across any favorite quotes on this theme or have written your own poems/quotes on the subject, please send them.  Thanks! Below are a few of my favorite quotes that will be printed in the booklet:
“Love is the poetry of the senses.” – Honore de Balzac
“Chains do not hold a marriage together. It is threads, hundreds of tiny threads which sew people together through the years.” – Simone Signoret
“…Marriage is the commitment of the two parties one to the other, and their mutual attachment of mind and heart. Each must, however, exercise the utmost care to become thoroughly acquainted with the character of the other, that the binding covenant between them may be a tie that will endure forever. Their purpose must be this: to become loving companions and comrades and at one with each other for time and eternity…” – Abdu’l-Baha

Thought of the Day:
“Love is the only flower that grows and blossoms without the aid of the seasons.”
– Kahlil Gibran
