For love that smiled in April
Is false to me in May. — Sara Teasdale

I am amazed about how everyone wants to know about my love life. They whisper to me, 'Tell me the truth? Is it true?' Who cares? Because we have this job, we are to say to everybody what we do, or with whom we sleep? It's a bit absurd, but that's why everybody lies so much. — Penelope Cruz

Heart of my heart, the world is young;
Love lies hidden in every rose!

Hand in hand as we wander along,
What should we doubt of the years that roll? — Alfred Noyes

Love is a verb, not a noun. It is active. Love is not just feelings of passion and romance. It is behavior. If a man lies to you, he is behaving badly and unlovingly toward you.
