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 of the... heart... broken.
