THE LOVERS





The truth is often a terrible weapon
of aggression.  It is possible to lie, and
even to murder for the truth.
                           - Alfred Adler (1890-1937)
                              Problems of neurosis



I hate and I love.  Perhaps you
ask why I do so.  I do not know,
but I feel it happen and I am
tormented.
                        - Catullus, Carmina, 85



A false friend is more dangerous
than an open enemy.
                         - Francis Bacon (1516-1626)
                            " A Letter of Advice...to the Duke
                                of Buckingham"



So, so, break off this last lamenting
kiss, which sucks two souls, and vapours
both away, turn thou ghost that way,
and let me turn this...
                           - John Donne (1572-1631)
                              " The Expiration"



Three may keep a secret, if two of
them are dead.
                         - Benjamin Franklin  (1706-1790)
                            Poor Richard's Almanac



For the dead travel fast.
                        - Bram Stoker (1847-1912)
                           Dracula ( After Burger's 'Lenore')



My Heart asks for Peace-
Day after Day flies by, and every
hour takes away
A little piece of Life; but you and I,
we two,
We contemplate living...
                             - Aleksandr Pushkin
                               (1799-1837) - " It's time,
                                                      my friend, it's time."
