Happy Valentine's Day
Love is many things, none of them logical.
A heartfelt birthday message from Johnny Cash to his beloved wife June has been voted the greatest love letter of all time. Check out some of the others that made the list.
1. Johnny Cash wishes wife June Carter Cash a happy 65th birthday (1994)
'We
get old and get used to each other. We think alike. We read each others
minds. We know what the other wants without asking. Sometimes we
irritate each other a little bit. Maybe sometimes take each other for
granted. But once in awhile, like today, I meditate on it and realise
how lucky I am to share my life with the greatest woman I ever met.'
2. Winston Churchill tells wife Clementine Churchill of his undying love (1935)
'My
darling Clemmie, in your letter from Madras you wrote some words very
dear to me, about having enriched your life. I cannot tell you what
pleasure this gave me, because I always feel so overwhelmingly in your
debt, if there can be accounts in love.'
3.John Keats tells next door neighbour Fanny Brawne he can not live without her. (1819)
'I
cannot exist without you - I am forgetful of every thing but seeing you
again - my Life seems to stop there - I see no further. You have
absorb'd me.'
4. Ernest Hemingway professes his love to Marlene Dietrich (1951)
'I can't say how every time I ever put my arms around you I felt that I was home.'
5. Napoleon Bonaparte sends his love to Josephine de Beauharnais (1796)
'Since
I left you, I have been constantly depressed. My happiness is to be
near you. Incessantly I live over in my memory your caresses, your
tears, your affectionate solicitude. The charms of the incomparable
Josephine kindle continually a burning and a glowing flame in my heart.'
**I absolutely love Richard's words--
6.Richard Burton tells Elizabeth Taylor of her beauty (1964)
'My
blind eyes are desperately waiting for the sight of you. You don't
realize of course, E.B., how fascinatingly beautiful you have always
been, and how strangely you have acquired an added and special and
dangerous loveliness.'
7.King Henry VIII expresses his love for Anne Boleyn (1527)
'I
beg to know expressly your intention touching the love between us.
Necessity compels me to obtain this answer, having been more than a year
wounded by the dart of love, and not yet sure whether I shall fail or
find a place in your affection.'
8. Beethoven pens his love for his 'Immortal Beloved' whose true identity remains a mystery (1812)
'Though
still in bed, my thoughts go out to you, my Immortal Beloved, Be
calm-love me-today-yesterday-what tearful longings for you-you-you-my
life-my all-farewell. Oh continue to love me-never misjudge the most
faithful heart of your beloved. Ever thine. Ever mine. Ever ours.'
9.
Gerald Ford reminds wife Betty Ford of his and their family's love for
her shortly after she was diagnosed with breast cancer (1974)
'No
written words can adequately express our deep, deep love. We know how
great you are and we, the children and Dad, will try to be as strong as
you. Our Faith in you and God will sustain us. Our total love for you is
everlasting.'
10. Jimi Hendrix tells his 'little girl' to spread her wings (date unknown)
'Happiness
is within you*. so unlock the chains from your heart and let yourself
grow like the sweet flower you are*.. I know the answer-Just spread your
wings and set yourself FREE'
