Vita Sackville-West Love Quotations

April, the angel of the months, the young love of the year.

I just miss you, in a quite simple desperate human way. Oh my dear, I can’t be clever and stand-offish with you: I love you too much for that. Too truly.You have no idea how stand-offish I can be with people I don’t love. I have brought it to a fine art. But you have broken down my defences. And I don’t really resent it.

There is nothing more lovely in life than the union of two people whose love for one another has grown through the years, from the small acorn of passion, into a great rooted tree

I loved you when love was Spring, and May, Loved you when summer deepened into June, and now when autumn yellows all the leaves...

I miss you even more than I could have believed; and I was prepared to miss you a good deal.
