When the usher came by and noticed this, he whispered to the old man, "Sorry sir, but you're only allowed one seat." The old man didn't budge. The usher became more impatient. "Sir, if you don't get up from there I'm going to have to call the manager." Once again, the old man just muttered and did nothing. The usher marched briskly back up the aisle, and in a moment returned with the manager. Together the two of them tried repeatedly to move the old disheveled man, but with no success. Finally, they summoned the police. The officer surveyed the situation briefly, then asked, "All right, buddy, what's your name?" "Fred," the old man moaned. "Where you from, Fred?" asked the police officer. With a terrible strain in his voice, and without moving, Fred replied; "The balcony".

Top Ten Quotations about What Love Is

Love is what we were born with. Fear is what we learned here.

Marianne Williamson

Love is an energy—it can neither be created nor destroyed.

It just is and always will be, giving meaning to life and direction to goodness. . . .  Love will never die

Bryce Courtney

Without love our life is…a ship without a rudder . . .

like a body without a soul.

Sholom Aleichem

Love is a game that two can play and both win.

Eva Gabor

Love is not blind—it sees more, not less. But because it sees more,

it is willing to see less.

Julius Gorden

Love is like quicksilver in the hand. Leave the fingers open, and it stays. Clutch it, and it darts away.

Dorothy Parker

Love is always open arms. If you close your arms about love

you will find that you are left holding only yourself.

Leo Buscaglia

Love is a fire.  But whether it is going to warm your hearth or burn down your house, you can never tell.

Joan Crawford

Love is much nicer to be in than an automobile accident, a tight girdle, a higher tax bracket or a holding pattern over Philadelphia.

Judith Viorst

Everyone admits that love is wonderful and necessary,

yet no one can agree on what it is. 

Diane Ackerman
