The heart has its reasons which reason knows nothing of - Blaise Pascal, One of those topics that oft comes up in late night conversations is that most confusing of topics on the ways of the human heart. If there is anything else that can cause as much happiness and sadness (oft at the same time) to a person I can not think what it may be and yet it is something which we are all doomed to suffer from at least once during our lifetimes. It has been the subject matter of songs, poetry, books and art for centuries. Indeed, if it is not the most covered subject I would be most surprised, So long as men can breathe or eyes can see, So long live this, and this gives life to thee. These are the closing words from Sonnet No.18 written by the esteemed playwrite, the Mr William Shakespeare. This is telling us that as long as there are people able to read these words, as long as these words are able to be read then feelings and emotions in the sonnet will always be known. For now and all time. If you are wondering, Sonnet No.18 is of course; 'Shall I compare thee to a summer's day? Thou art more lovely and more temperate,' As it says, " With love, the bruises are on the inside."
