"The main reason for the virtual disappearance of discourse on love ... is the enormous prestige of science in our age, and science's propensity to value only that which it can explain."
- Ethel S. Person, M.D., from the introduction to her book "Dreams of Love and Fateful Encounters: The Power of Romantic Passion" (1988; 2007).
"But what the old time masters had / Is what I feel for you / Love is love and doesn't change / In a century or two / If some way they had seen and knew / How it would be for me and you / They'd wish for love like yours / And they would wish for love like mine / Before my time / Before my time."
- Johnny Cash (1932-2003), from "Before My Time" (from his album "American III - Solitary Man", 2000)
