Ten Icons of Love

[dried-frog-pill.livejournal.com]

Hey all, first time posting here. I bring 10 icons in time for Valentine's Day. Now, I hate Valentine's Day, so I tried to balance it. You have 6 icons of a more optimistic take on love, and 4 on the pessimistic side. Credit and comments are nice, but not required. Just don't hotlink them.

Preview:




1. 2. 3.

4. 5. 6.



7. 8. 9. 10.

Quotes from:
1, 2: Much Ado About Nothing, William Shakespeare
3, 9: "The Jerk," Jeffrey McDaniel
4: Looking for Alaska, John Green (I think this is right)
5: e.e. cummings
6. by Nigel Slater, but I'm unsure of what the work is. Toast, I think.
7. The Picture of Dorian Grey, Oscar Wilde
8. The Falls, Joyce Carol Oates
10. "A Leave-Taking," Algernon Swinburne

#3? #3 is sheer awesome. I think I need to go find that book/poem/whatever.

Isn't it? I love that imagery! Someone had posted the poem on greatpoets (here it is (http://community.livejournal.com/greatpoets/1427812.html)) and I fell in love with it.

I hate Valentine's Day simply because I'm single too, but I absolutely had to have some of these. They're beautiful, and I loved the quotes, so I took 2, 3, and 8.
