2 _любов і ненависть
absence makes the heart grow fonder absence sharpens love, presence strengthens it against love and fortune there is no defense all is fair in love and war better a dinner of herbs where love is than a stalled ox where hate is better to be an old man's darling, than a young man's slave a blow from a lover is as sweet as eating raisins the course of true love never did run smooth the falling out of lovers is the renewing of love faults are thick where love is thin follow love and it will flee; flee love and it will follow you friendship often ends in love, but love in friendship never the greatest hate comes from the greatest love hate twins to love hatred is blind, as well as love the hatred of the nearest relatives is the most bitter he who loves well will never forget it is better to have loved and lost than never to have loved at all it is gold that greases the wheel of love love all, trust few love and a cough cannot be hid love can neither be bought nor sold, its only price is love love cannot be compelled love conquers all love cures coquetry love cures the very wound it makes love is blind love is a friendship set afire love is the master of all arts love is the mother of love love is never without jealousy love is the reward of love love me, love my dog love takes away the sight, and matrimony restores it love will creep where it may not go the love light goes out when the gas bill comes in the memory of a great love is kept green forever no herb will cure love old love burns low when new love breaks old love does not rust out of sight, out of mind pity is akin to love the same wind which extinguishes a small love kindles a great one unlucky in love, lucky at play we hate those whom we have wronged when love is greatest, words are fewest when poverty comes in at the door, love flies out at the window we always hurt the ones we loveEnglish-Ukrainian dictionary of proverbs > _любов і ненависть
