Love quotes? You have come to the right place my friend. Like a lot of readers/nerds/internet addicts I am in love with some of the quotes I find from places like TV shows, books, bands, inspirational famous people, and the like. You'll find some insults and comebacks floating around in here too somewhere, which I give you all permission to use against people that probably deserve being taken down a notch! *Also, if people have any requests, feel free to message me and I'll probably get round to doing it like two or three months later :) I'll dedicate the chapter you requested to you as well :)*
