Notable Quotables – Valentine’s Day Edition

Posted 14 February, 2011 by Danny in / 0 Comments

Welcome to Notable Quotables! Not sure exactly what you’re supposed to do to be a part of the meme? Check out our first post here.

Notable Quotables is a meme we started here at Bewitched Bookworms to share some of our favorite quotes in the books we’ve been reading. We think it is a fun way to find out a bit more about each other as book bloggers and to share everything from great snarky zingers to sigh inducing avowals of love.

Anyone can participate in this meme and it really can be any quote from any book, no matter the genre. So get creative and share something fun!

Here’s our quote for the week,
from
e.e. cummings
goodreads

i carry your heart with me(i carry it in
my heart)i am never without it(anywhere
i go you go,my dear; and whatever is done
by only me is your doing,my darling)
i fear
no fate(for you are my fate,my sweet)i want
no world(for beautiful you are my world,my true)
and it’s you are whatever a moon has always meant
and whatever a sun will always sing is you

here is the deepest secret nobody knows
(here is the root of the root and the bud of the bud
and the sky of the sky of a tree called life;which grows
higher than the soul can hope or mind can hide)
and this is the wonder that’s keeping the stars apart

i carry your heart(i carry it in my heart)

For Valentine’s Day, I wanted to share my favorite love poem. What I love most about this poem is that it illustrates that love is both a gift and a responsibility but a joyous one. And the gift is not only for the one you love but for yourself. And Mr. Cummings says that just perfectly!
