A Quote by John Updike

In the vacuum of the heart love falls forever. — © John Updike
In the vacuum of the heart love falls forever.
I feel like we can't pick who we fall in love with because if we could, we would all make better choices. Your heart just falls where it falls.
With all my heart, and all my soul, I will love you till the winds don't blow. Until the oceans turn to stone, my love is yours and yours alone. My love is forever, until forever's gone.
I love to vacuum. There's just something so satisfying about hearing detritus sucked up into a vacuum. Sand makes such a great sound when being vacuumed off a hardwood floor.
The chemistry of mind is different from the chemistry of love. The mind is careful, suspicious, he advances little by little. He advises “Be careful, protect yourself” Whereas love says “Let yourself, go!” The mind is strong, never falls down, while love hurts itself, falls into ruins. But isn’t it in ruins that we mostly find the treasures? A broken heart hides so many treasures.
He'll learn that many women can satisfy for a short period of time, but when he falls in love, only one will sustain him forever.
I said I love you and that's forever And this I promise from the heart I could not love you any better I love you just the way you are.
When you see someone you love with somebody else, your heart kind of falls to the ground.
As it happened, I didn't grow up to be the kind of woman who is the heroine in a Western, and although the men I have known have had many virtues and have taken me to live in many places I have come to love, they have never been John Wayne, and they have never taken me to the bend in the river where the cottonwoods grow. Deep in that part of my heart where artificial rain forever falls, that is still the line I want to hear.
Draw a circle, not a heart, around the one you love because a heart can break but a circle goes on forever.
When a man falls in love, he wants to go to bed. When a woman falls in love, she wants to talk about it.
We still have the love for music; it will forever be in my heart.
For all his wisdom, he did not know that love cannot be tested. Honesty can be tested and loyalty. But there is not test for love. Love goes on forever, once it begins, even if we come to hate the one we love. Love goes on forever because love is born in the part of us that does not die.
There is a God-shaped vacuum in every heart.
Secrecy is a vacuum and nothing fills a vacuum like paranoid speculation.
Everyone falls in love, everyone gets their heart broken.
An editor is an accomplice, looking in from the outside. That objective view is essential. We don't write in a vacuum, and we don't publish in a vacuum.
