But there is nothing romantic about a definite proposal. Why, one may be accepted. One usually is, I believe. Then the excitement is all over. The very essence of romance is uncertainty. (Algernon in The Importance of Being Ernest) - Oscar Wilde I really don't see anything romantic in proposing. It is very romantic to be in love. But there is nothing romantic about a definite proposal. Why, one may be accepted. One usually is, I believe. Then the excitement is all over. The very essence of romance is uncertainty. If ever I get married, I'll certainly try to forget the fact. - Oscar Wilde A...

Born to destroy and self destruct. - Virginia C Andrews All I have is a voice to undo the folded lie, the romantic lie in the brain of the sensual man-in-the-street and ...

Here is something that Peach, one of the Casserole Queens, says about men and women and love. You know that scene in Romeo and Juliet, where Romeo is standing on the ground looking longingly at Juliet on the balcony above him? One of the most romantic moments in all of literary history?

Yes." She sighed again, with even more drama, not that Gregory would have imagined it possible. "It is all so romantic," she added. "The bride, the groom..."

I thought you'd want to know that Warren and Darryl made it out of the vampire den alive." I sucked in my breath. "You didn't actually agree to their meeting on Marsilia's grounds?" He laughed.

The sun melted the cloud a bit, like cotton candy in the heat. Eventually, the cloud finished its dance with the sun and escaped as a circular blob. Livia bit her lip. "Well, that went from a romantic moment to horrifying bunny torture." Blake lau...
