Help from the blogging community?

I linked yesterday to the weirdest response to my blog, ever. I emailed the woman back, and today she sent me the list of questions for 'dating advice from medievalists'. The final question is 'what is a good quote from medieval literature to use in flirting?'

What do we reckon? Best medieval flirtation quote? I mean, personally, I discovered quite by accident that being able to quote Genesis B makes me powerfully attractive, but I suspect that's a particular quirk of the medievalist I was talking to.

Oh, you medievalists. Here I am, all dressed up ready with Catullus and nowhere to go.

(and he's got the best insults, too! what a guy.)
