Whether you’re mending a broken heart or falling head over heels, sometimes a few wise words can go a long way. With that in mind, we’ve spiffed up some of our favorite sayings to make you smile or get you in the mood. Just in time for the long weekend.

Never love anybody who treats you like you're ordinary. -Oscar Wilde

You are double-extra-deluxe-sundae-on-a-Monday special. Anyone who doesn’t see that doesn’t deserve you.

In my mind, the sexiest thing in the world is feeling that you're wanted. -Mindy Kaling

Ever become interested in someone after realizing they have the hots for you? Seems you’re not the only one. (We can relate, and so can Mindy.)

Love is an ice cream sundae with all the marvelous coverings. Sex is the cherry on top. - Jimmy Dean

It’s no coincidence that food metaphors are popular for talking about sex—these two glorious things are totally linked. (BTW, if you love food and sex, we have a hunch that you’ll also love our aphrodisiac recipes.)

We're all a little weird and life's a little weird. And when we find someone whose weirdness is compatible with ours, we join up with them and fall into mutually satisfying weirdness, and call it love, true love. -Robert Fulghum

Life is definitely a little weird—but sometimes it’s weird in such a good way. (Like an I-can’t-believe-this-is-my-life way.) And when we meet people whose weirdness matches ours, it’s even better.

Kissing, I mean like yummy, smacking kissing, is the most delicious, most beautiful and passionate thing that two people can do. -Drew Barrymore

A flirty, swirly kiss with lots o’ tongue. A quick peck on the forehead as you head out the door. Or a luxuriously long, “Why, hello there” kiss. Kissing can communicate so much, and there are so many wonderful ways to do it.
