My Valentine

"He proposed on a Valentine's day, although he didn't do it face to face, he did it in one of the little Valentine bits in the paper. I think he had to pay for it by the word, because it just said 'Lee love Dawn, marriage?' which you know, I like, because it's not often you get to something that's both romantic and thrifty."


"What's the big deal with Valentine's Day? It's a made-up holiday. Nobody even knows who this St. Valentine guy was."

"As the candy hearts poured into the fiery quasar a wondrous thing happened, why not. They vaporized into a mystical love radiation that spread across the universe destroying many, many planets, including two gangster planets and a cowboy world. But one planet was exactly the right distance to see the romantic rays but not be destroyed by them: Earth. So all over the world couples stood together in joy. And me, Zoidberg. And no one could have been happier unless it would have also been Valentine's Day. What? It was? Hooray."

"Why is it I love you any more in the middle of February than on, say, August 21st? You know, to me, every day with you is Valentine's Day."

"Love... a blip on the monitor of involuntary human response, a hiccup of emotion when compared with envy... hatred... lust. And just who was this... St. Valentine? A Bishop. Roman 3rd Century, got his head sliced off... ouch... for marrying lovers against his Emperor's decree. You see Claudius the Second believed that men made better warriors unmarried. Power comes with the absence of love. Love... drains us of our strength. We never learn... do we? And you say that love conquers all! Well, not for you St. Valentine, not for me. Not for any are that... heart... broken."


Love is groovy baby, yeah
