"Don't wake up a woman in love. Let her dream, so that she does not weep when she returns to her bitter reality" 
--Mark Twain

  1. I like this quote, it appeals to me in a different way than others. It's sad but it's beautiful.

  2. I am so glad that you recognize its beauty. I didn't select this because it was "sad" that the woman was living a bitter reality. I thought of the excitement and the joy that often comes with being with another person who makes you think "please don't let me wake up from this dream. Its too wonderful!"
