Big girls need big diamonds.

Albert Einstein

Put your hand on a hot stove for a minute, and it seems like an hour. Sit with a pretty girl for an hour, and it seems like a minute. THAT’S relativity.

J. D. Salinger

Girls. You never know what they’re going to think.

And when I saw this, I said, Yes!

Shyam Kapoor

A girl is a person who screams at the mouse and smiles at the wolf.

I was downtown for a course today, and it’s so true. You really can stand on the corner and watch the girls go by. All day if you had the time. Wow! ( see earlier post here )

At the other end of my relationship (when we were trying to reconcile) I used this song. I used to call up my wife and instead of saying hello, I would play 10 or 15 seconds of Unchained Melody to her before we would talk.

I first remember this one as the love theme from “Ghost”. It was beautiful.

Here is part of this famous Righteous Brothers song.

Whoa! My love, my darling,
I hunger for your touch,
Alone. Lonely time.
And time goes by, so slowly,
And time can do so much,
Are you still mine?
I need your love.
I need your love.
God speed your love to me.

By the way, for all the romantics out there, my wedding day was 32 years ago today. Alas, the love died, but the good memories persist.

Here’s to women (girls) everywhere.

May 12, 1869

Out of the depths of my happy heart wells a great tide of love and prayer for this priceless treasure that is confided to my life-long keeping.

You cannot see its intangible waves as they flow towards you, darling, but in these lines you will hear, as it were, the distant beating of the surf.

Mark Twain (Samuel Langhorne Clemens), American writer, to Olivia Langdon, his future wife.

When I was dating my later-to-be wife I was working a summer job as a daftsman. One of our favourite songs at that time was Elton John’s Your Song.

One day I took a small piece of a translucent plastic like material and carefully printed the entire song on it using a special little tool we had at work. I then bundled it up with a card and presented it to her.

Anyhow, here is the chorus of that famous song that I dedicated to my true love (get out the kleenex!)

And you can tell everybody this is your song
It may be quite simple but now that it’s done
I hope you don’t mind, I hope you don’t mind that I put down in words
How wonderful life is while you’re in the world

A guy I know calls this the original stalking song.

Every breath you take
Every move you make
Every bond you break
Every step you take
I’ll be watching you

I just had to start my new blog off like this! Talk about famous writings on the topic of GIRLS.

Standing on the corner
watching all the girls go by
Standing on the corner
watching all the girls go by
Brother you don’t know a nicer occupation
Matter of fact, neither do I
Than standing on the corner
watching all the girls,
watching all the girls,
watching all the girls go by

The Four Lads were a Canadian singing group. They grew up together in Toronto, Ontario, and were members of St. Michael’s Choir School, where they learned to sing. “Standing on the Corner” (1956) is their second best known hit, after “Moments to Remember” (1955).
