So finally the romantic day of the year has arrived & as promised here is a bunch of short love quotations by famous Irish writers - they last longer than a bunch of roses !!
You are the last honey by the water no hive can find - (Austin Clarke)
Come live in my heart and pay no rent. - (Samuel Lover 1797-1868)
There is nothing half so sweet in life as love's young dreams - (Thomas Moore 1779-1852)
First love is only a little foolishness and a lot of curiosity. - (George Bernard Shaw)
Women were made to be loved not to be understood. - (Oscar Wilde)
A pity beyond all telling Is hid in the heart of love- (William Butler Yeats)
So that's it for all my friends & colleagues until another year - back to business & "romancing" our clients!!
As I promised yesterday, here is another quotation on the theme of love, from an ol' Irish realtor with a romantic soul !! This time a quotation from the famous 19th century Irish poet, William Butler Yeats who wrote:
"Had I the heavens' embroidered cloths,
Enwrought with golden and silver light,
The blue and the dim and the dark cloths
Of night and light and the half light,
I would spread the cloths under your feet:
But I, being poor, have only my dreams;
I have spread my dreams under your feet;
Tread softly because you tread on my dreams."
As I promised yesterday, here is another quotation on the theme of love, from an ol' Irish realtor with a romantic soul !! A quotation of more recent vintage .......
The deeper I spin
The hunter will sin ... for your ivory skin ...
Took a drive in the dirty rain
To a place where the wind calls your name
Under the trees the river laughing
At you and me ...
Halluijah, heavens white rose
The doors you open
I just can't close !
(U2, Who's Gonna Ride Your Wild Horses?)
As an ol' Irish realtor & history buff, I thought my fellow practioners of real estate might appreciate my sharing of some old & famous "Love Quotations" by famous Irish writers - I will post at least one a day till V-Day !
Here is the first ......
"Wine comes in at the mouth
And love comes in at the eye;
That's all that we will know for truth
Before we grow old and die.
I lift the glass to my mouth,
I look at you and I sigh." - William Butler Yeats (1865-1939)
