The affections are like lightning: you cannot tell where they will strike till they have fallen.
–Jean Baptiste LacordaireThe moment we indulge our affections, the earth is metamorphosed, there is no winter and no night; all tragedies, all ennuis, vanish, all duties even.
–Ralph Waldo Emerson

Talk not of wasted affection; affection never was wasted.
–Henry Wadsworth Longfellow

Sometimes we let affection, go unspoken,
Sometimes we let our love go unexpressed,
Sometimes we can’t find words to tell our feelings,
Especially towards those we love the best.
–author unknown

There is a time for risky love. There is a time for extravagant gestures. There is a time to pour out your affections on one you love. And when the time comes –seize it, don’t miss it.
–Max Lucado
