情人节前夕，纽约时报的JENNIFER 8. LEE 在城市专栏写文章“Summing Up Love in
Six Words”， 问，可以用6个字总结爱吗？可以用6个字总结痛心-heartache 吗？
出版商HarperCollins 为简短的回忆录爱好者们出版了“关于爱与伤心的6字回忆录”。
书中有些知名纽约人士的经典，象，
Raoul Felder, divorce lawyer: Love almost always leads to heartbreak.
Esther Newberg, literary agent: He told me he was single.
也有一些不适于在这种公共博客网站刊登的警句。
受到书的激励，人们开始在出版商的网站发布自己的名句
(http://www.smithmag.net/sixword-love/)。如：
"will you marry me?" he texted. (A refreshing change from the phenomenon
of dumping someone via text message.JENNIFER 注 )
Craig's List yields more than furniture.
I lured you with my mustache.
My vibrator is my Valentine. Mmmm.
Wish I couldn't read your email.
He said love. Then we fxxxed
书的编辑将于情人节晚8点在Housing Works Bookstore Cafe， 126 Crosby Street
举行的活动中和感兴趣的人们会面。同时，读者也被鼓励在纽约时报的网站留下自
己的6字心得，What are you waiting for? Go!
相信过来人会找到使自己会心一笑的句子。摘举若干如下：
总结性的：
I really don't deserve his love.
we are the love others desire
Never gave him the keys anyway . . .
Tried loving other men. In vain.
Four years later, still no commitment.
Right place, right time, with you.
She knows me better than myself.
it was just lust after all.
Unable to love anyone, even himself
Joy, Pain Like Sunshine and Rain
I lied because I love you
请求：
Mikey, can we try it again?
家庭：
Knot tied; 9 months: cord cut.
Me, she. Them two. Our family.
Two friends are now one family.
In memory of my parents: Six kids later, never any doubt.
时代性：
Traditional marriage: You first, me last, we forever.
Modern marriage: Me first, you free, no we.
他 0r 她：
Turns out I loved me more.
It Is always his damn fault
He didn't do me much good.
When in doubt, she's always right.
I'm more because you're beside me.
富有激情：
We dance in the kitchen, still.
Newly found, like rose in dew.
There's a passion; then there's love.
Still on honeymoon; today, tomorrow, forever
After this long, still feels new.
Us, together, warmer than the fire
希望：
Starting over, once again, oh boy...
why can't we find IT again?
Comes home, falls asleep, I clean up.
Love someday, happy with me today.
Years ago...finallly again. Hopefully forever.
富有哲理:
He is my world. I, his.
She feels like home to me.
Remember, love is made ─ not found.
Love is losing sight over yourself.
I'm more because you're beside me.
忠告：
Took Viagra. Upset stomach. Small sacrifice.
Married wrong one. Learned from mistake.
Love ain't nothing but sex misspelled
Forgive one another, every single day
Mine is nonexistent, only hope remains.
Too much, too soon, too bad.
It's the little things that matter.
My standards rose as hormones declined.
感叹：
I cant afford to not love
Too much sacrifice. Wish I'd known.
His cold feet were warmed elsewhere
Best decision I've made. By far.
Had it, lost it, miss it.
Intense passion can't crack his heart.
She died. Took my heart along.
At last I found THE one.
Never understood it till we met
too young to know our future
In love after all these years
Where did you go my love?
日常生活：
Where did you put my keys?
He wakes me up with coffee.
She lets me hold the remote.
与法律有关？
Your restraining order seems somewhat excessive.
与生理有关:
I lured you with my mustache.
说什么呐？一头雾水：
Had me at 1/2 M V...
Been there. Done that. Never again.
...done me, she done me good
I thought we agreed on $200?
"Now that was amazing!" "My turn."
Love is red, so's our portfolio.
Unlocked the door, I wanted more.
My God, my God, no more.
He keeps looking at the stars.
I laughed, we cried, he died.
自己喜欢的6个字，YOU ARE ALWAYS ON MY MIND
另外一位读者在不同的评论网页留下的评论也很不错，
No one knows the day nor the hour when death will come. This is why we must
live our lives to the fullest and display love and affection to those who
we really love and care about. Two things in life that are certain: life
and death. Love hard...live everyday as if it were your last....for you never
know what tomorrow holds...only God knows.
─ Ms. Nia
