omnia vincit amor...

According to Virgil "love conquers all" this a propos of today being World Poetry Day.

And my favourite (today at least) lines of English poetry?"

My name is Ozymandias, king of kings:
Look on my works, ye Mighty, and despair!"
Nothing beside remains. Round the decay
Of that colossal wreck, boundless and bare
The lone and level sands stretch far away.
