Big dates

Quotes. Why are they so popular? What is it about dating that humans are so attracted to? Cite the preface chapters of the books. They are painted on the walls of our schools. We frame them and hang them in our homes. We send them to each other in cards and letters. They adorn the hallways of our work areas and are engraved on our headstones when we die.

What are dating anyway? How can simply organizing a few words have such an impact? A recent tour of the Library of Congress revealed numerous quotes from the great books of all time written on the upstairs windows and doors.

Is it possible that the combination of words has an impact far beyond the individual words themselves? Is there an electrical frequency created from the combination of words that is extended and connected to our brain that really resonates with our own being? It is true that dating means different things to different people. Perhaps our very beings are affected in some way by the combinations of words that we call quotation marks.
