One does not remember the flowers or the comliments. One remembers standing¹ at an upstairs window staring dowm the evening-shadowed street waiting for him to turn the corner.

她不记得那些鲜花或赞美声。她只记得在楼上窗前的站立，凝视着被夜幕笼罩的街道，等待他出现在街角。

PAM BROWN, b. 1928

Love knows no limits to its endurance, no end to its trust, no dashing of its hope; it can outlast² anything. It is, in fact the one thing that still stands when all else has fallen.

爱的忍耐没有边界，爱的信任没有终点，爱的希望不会破灭，爱比任何事物都长久。事实上，当其他所有的一切都趴下时，爱依然挺立。

1 CORINTHIANS 13: 1-2, 4-7

Love is a symbol of eternity³, it wipes out all sense of time, destroying all memory of a beginning and all fear of an end.

爱是个永恒的象征，她擦去所有时间的痕迹，摧毁所有开始的记忆以及对死亡的恐惧。

MADAME DE STAEL (1766-1817)

There is only one terminal dignity - love... It is perhaps the only glimpse we are permitted of eternity.

爱是唯一的终极品格... 可能是我们生前的最后一瞥。

HELEN HAYES (1900-1993)

Love - the most permanent of human emotions.

Love is something eternal - the aspect may change, but not the essence.

爱是永恒的-—外表可能改变，本质不变。

VINCENT VAN GOGH (1853-1890)

All love is sweet, given or returned. Common as light is love, and its familiar voice wearies not ever.

所有的爱都是甜蜜的，无论是给予还是回报。爱像阳光一样无所不在，那熟悉的嗓音永远不会消逝。

PERCY BYSSHE SHELLEY (1792-1822)

It is so small a thing to have enjoyed the sun, to have lived light in the spring, to have loved, to have thought, to have done?

欣赏太阳，沐浴春光，去爱，去思想，去行动，难道这些是小事吗?

MATTHEW ARNOLD (1822-1888)

No never forget!... Never forget any moment; they are too few.

从不会忘记!从未忘记任何一个瞬间，它们太稀少。
