"Love knows not distance; it hath no continent; its eyes are for the stars." ― Gilbert Parker Topic(s): Love More From Gilbert Parker "It must be remembered that the sea is a great breeder of friendship. Two men who have known each other for twenty years find that twenty days at sea bring them nearer than ever they were before, or else estrange them." "Imagination is at the root of much that passes for love." "Man is born in a day, and he dies in a day, and the thing is easily over; but to have a sick heart for three-fourths of one’s lifetime is simply to have death renewed every morning; and life at that price is not worth living." More In Love "To be happy with a man you must understand him a lot and love him a little. To be happy with a woman you must love her a lot and not try to understand her at all."― Helen Rowland "Who, being loved, is poor?"― Oscar Wilde "I always like to win. But I’m the big sister. I want to make sure she has everything, even if I don’t have anything. It’s hard. I love her too much. That’s what counts."― Venus Williams
