like anything and I haven't got anybody to marry me yet." (Gary, 7)

time."  (Christine, 9)

ON WHAT FALLING IN LOVE IS LIKE

"Like an avalanche where you have to run for your life."
(Roger, 9)

"If falling in love is anything like learning how to spell, I
don't want to do it. It takes too long."  (Leo, 7)

"No one is sure why it happens, but I heard it has something
to do with how you smell. That's why perfume and deodorant are
so popular."  (Jan, 9)

"I think you're supposed to get shot with an arrow or
something, but the rest of it isn't supposed to be so painful."
(Harlen, 8)
