Oxford Love Quotations by Susan Ratcliffe
This is a collection of 2500 quotations, arranged thematically. The themes cover all aspects of love, and include sections for quotations on areas of life seen from a lover's point of view - for instance, food and drink, dress, letters, presents, the seasons. There is an author index, rather than a keyword index. Quotations have been drawn from as wide a variety of sources as possible, reflecting both past and present views of love, with emphasis on the humorous as well as the romantic. Both literary and popular writers are included, along with comedians, journalists, and public figures from all walks of life. There are also a substantial number of quotations from film and television, and anonymous sources such as advertising slogans and graffiti are represented.Susan Ratcliffe is an Associate Editor for Oxford Quotations Dictionaries, and has previously edited the Oxford Dictionary of Phrase, Saying and Quotation and The Concise Oxford Dictionary of Quotations.
