[Gone With the Wind]

Now he disliked talking business with her as much as he had enjoyed it before they were married. Then he had thought it all beyond her mental grasp and it had been pleasant to explain things to her. Now he saw that she understood entirely too well and he felt the usual masculine indignation at the duplicity of women. Added to it was the usual masculine disillusionment in discovering that a woman has a brain.

[Gone With the Wind]

Love

Love.
What, but the promise of forever?
What, but to live and die together?

What, but the flutter of the floating heart?
The ardent longing in the seconds apart?

What, but to dream of him through the night?
To wake up every morning right by his side?

What, but the need to see him when you're blue?
To feel the warmth of his arms around you?

Love.
What, but to be together, forever and always?
Love.
What, but him?

A thousand words from the lips may flow,
a thousand reasons it happens so..
But a gentle brush of the smiling lips
against the tender cheeks aglow?
Yes, a picture's worth a thousand words,
but a kiss, worth a thousand of those.

Women knew that a land where men were contented, uncontrolled, uncontradicted and safe in possession of unpunctured vanity was likely to be a very pleasant place for women to live.
