Peter Høeg Quotes About Falling In Love

Quotes about: Falling In Love

• I don't fall in love anymore. Just like I don't get the mumps.

  Peter Høeg

  Broken Heart, Falling In Love, Don't Fall In Love

• Falling in love has been greatly overrated. Falling in love consists of 45 percent fear of not being accepted, 45 percent manic hope that this time the fear will be put to shame and a modest 10 percent frail awareness of the possibility of love. I don't fall in love any more. Just like I don't get the mumps.

  Peter Høeg

  Falling In Love, Shame, Awareness

• Maybe it's wrong when we remember breakthroughs to our own being as something that occurs in discrete, extraordinary moments. Maybe falling in love, the piercing knowledge that we ourselves will someday die, and the love of snow are in reality not some sudden events; maybe they were always present. Maybe they never completely vanish, either.
