Breakup Quotes and Love Lost Broken Heart Quotations
Breaking up is hard to do, love can be the ultimate joy and the ultimate pain and sometimes a pithy quote
can serve well for the heart-broken, or the heart-breaker or those who have loved and lost or stepped into love and need to
wipe it off.
Love and romance are the best things in the world when they're working, and the most heinous in the universe when they're not.
Love is our diversion from the pain of life and when it leaves, it compounds the pain.
The following love lost quotes may exacerbate or relieve that pain for the moment...
So heretofor follow a few wise or
perhaps funny words, from King Solomon to Marilyn Monroe, that deal with the problems, pain and persistently pusillanimous pilferage of our hearts.

~ Marilyn Monroe

her lover,
In all the others all she loves is love."
