Love without action is like tea without sugar.
So, I picked up this book recently, Art & Lies by Jeanette Winterson. It's rather good, I think, with great writing and quite a few memorable phrases, but that's not what I wanted to bring up here. I was reading this book, and when I got to the start of a new chapter right around the middle of it, I found that somebody had written something down on an otherwise blank page between the chapters:

What I want with this thread is some assistance in finding out what this is. I would appreciate some degree of seriousness in responses, because this has piqued my interest, and I really would like to find out anything I can about it, no matter how trivial it may seem. Regarding what you could possibly be able to tell me about this; maybe you've seen any of the phrases or very similar ones somewhere else? Recognise the little signature-esque thing at the end? Got theories about the funky circling around the "are"? Had any similar experiences worth mentioning?
tl;dr: Your language is silly.

Love without action is like tea without sugar.
If tea without sugar = pointless, then love without action = useless. Acting on love would be... well, showing the love through your actions. Do more than say it. Why that was written twice or why there's a comma tossed around so oddly I'm not sure. Maybe it's repeated to emphasize it?
The rest looses me completely. The circle around "are" looks like a balloon, and all of it seems like it's missing words. The signature-esque thing at the bottom is probably just that: a signature.
I've never found anything like this written somewhere, but "love without action ..." sounds ridiculously familiar and I have no idea from where.

All you can eat at a baseball game
Good idea hopefully they will start this with the Astros.

Launched this season, the outfield eat-a-thon opens 90 minutes before the first pitch and lasts until the start of the seventh inning. Ticket prices range from $20 for group sales to $40 for day-of-game walk-ups. Some games are $25 during designated promotions.
