La vie est vaine, Un peu d’amour, Un peu de haine, Et puis– Bonjour! La vie est brève: Un peu d’espoir, Un peu de rève Et puis– Bon soir! Ah, brief is Life, Love’s short sweet way, With dreamings rife, And then– Good-day! And Life is vain– Hope’s vague delight, Grief’s transient pain, And then– Good-night. George Du Maurie
About This Quote

Life is short, love's short, but... It's also very sweet. If you are lucky, you have someone who makes your life complete. You have someone who is your other half, your other half that you don't quite have to take home to meet the parents, the other half that you find yourself sharing a bed with each night.
