Valentine Day Quotes:
Valentine’s Day, also known as Saint Valentine’s Day or Saint Valentine’s Feast, is observed on February 14 each year. It began as a Western Christian feast day celebrating one or two early Christian martyrs called Saint Valentine and is known in many regions of the world as an important cultural, religious, and commercial celebration of romance and love. There are a variety of martyrdom tales associated with various Valentines related to February 14, including an account of Saint Valentine of Rome’s incarceration for ministering to persecuted Christians under the Roman Empire in the third century.
Saint Valentine has restored sight to his jailer’s blind daughter according to an early tradition.
