Do you have any favorites related to love and/or strong partnership?
Ruth's got some good stuff, the wither thou goest and all that. And it's about Ruth refusing to leave Naomi all alone, not romantic.
If every vampire who said he was at the crucifixion was actually there, it would have been like Woodstock.

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."
Isn't Song of Solomon supposed to have some romantic bits?

How do you know you have a bad bra fit? (white fonted for bra bullshit)
- when one of your nipples peeks out under a cup of the bra. Apparently my need for a real bra fitting has hit Alert Level Red.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

Flat-out filthy bits more like.

Ecclesiastes 4:9-12 is nice:
"Two are better than one, because they have a good return for their labor: If either of them falls down, one can help the other up. But pity anyone who falls and has no one to help them up. Also, if two lie down together, they will keep warm. But how can one keep warm alone? Though one may be overpowered, two can defend themselves. A cord of three strands is not quickly broken."
Also the passage from Ruth that Connie mentioned [link]
"Where you go I will go, and where you stay I will stay. Your people will be my people and your God my God. Where you die I will die, and there I will be buried. May the Lord deal with me, be it ever so severely, if even death separates you and me."

Oy, ln. I feel you (not literally of course), I'm going to have to go get all refitted as was made painfully obvious the last time I put on a pre-maternity bra, and while I was happy to no longer spill over the edges, when I bent over I…fell out.

Ooooh. Steph. I like that one. I'll definitely look at the others, but we may have a winner!

I am knee-deep in wedding reading whatnot these days.
I edited to give you a link to the passage from Ruth, which I love dearly.

If you're going through hell/keep on going/don't slow down/keep your fear from showing/you might be gone/'fore the devil even knows you're there
"Two are better than one, because they have a good return for their labor: If either of them falls down, one can help the other up. But pity anyone who falls and has no one to help them up.

Lovely for the single folks in the audience.
Eta: I personally might do some judicious editing.
