“Maybe it was a Patty Hearst thing. Stockholm syndrome or whatever it's called when you're being held against your will but then you become sucked in and fall in love. Or if not exactly love, you fall into something you can't see out of. 'I can't shoot a machine gun' becomes 'Hey, this hardly has any kick-back!”
“Falling in love is easy, you see; any idiot can do it. It's falling out of love that's hard.”
“I can't help always falling upon it, and cry out with particular loudness and wailing, and become especially melancholy, when I see a dead love tied to a live love.”
“Falling in love you remain a child; rising in love you mature. By and by love becomes not a relationship, it becomes a state of your being. Not that you are in love - now you are love.”
“You know you're in love when you can't fall asleep because reality is finally better than your dreams.”
“When you fall in love you recognise you're not the most important person in the world, and your focus becomes another person.”
