Valentine's Day: Consider a Priceless Valentine's Card of your own making


Pictured: Romantic English poets Elizabeth Barrett and Robert Browning

Looking for a Valentine's Day quotes, sayings, love letters and free cards? Check out  The History Channel's website . This website has some great quotes and letters that may inspire you to write your own love letter. Romantic lover of English literature that I am, I especially love the story of the Brownings.

Pictured above is the actual letter poet Robert Browning wrote to Elizabeth Barrett. He wrote, " I love your verses with all my heart, dear Miss Barrett, -- and this is no off-hand complimentary letter." He touched her heart and won her love with nothing more than his words, some paper, ink and a nominally priced postage stamp.  He sent no chocolates, flowers or expensive gifts, just his words. Now that's priceless.
