Let's be real: There are a lot of things about Valentine's Day that are kind of played out whether you're in a relationship or not. But the holiday did manage to get at least one thing right, namely the fact that Valentine's Day involves chocolate. Lots and lots of chocolate.

Of course, there's also the fact that lots and lots of this chocolate is of the awful drugstore variety, but hey, chocolate is chocolate. Although you don’t need an excuse to enjoy chocolate any day of the week, Valentine’s Day is the perfect tie to get yourself some heart-shaped treats, and —pro tip — if you wait until Feb. 15, you can usually get some major discounts.

I mean, just think about it. Chocolate will never flake out on you, stand you up, cheat on you, or totally bomb a meet-the-parents lunch. With chocolate you never have to worry about being single or what exactly your relationship status even is anymore. Do you have to worry about whether it's appropriate to get your hookup buddy or friend with benefits a Valentine's gift? No, you do not, because with chocolate, nothing is complicated or difficult. With chocolate, everything is just good...and delicious.

So to help you appreciate the best part of Feb. 14 — and all the other days of the year — here are 16 quotes about chocolate. Because you deserve it.
