I don't know why but in my eyes, both of that instruments are cool but also have a romantic side.
Just by looking at someone played them and hear the sound, could make me happy and give me a good feeling... :)
I also find some quotes about violin and cello:
A table, a chair, a bowl of fruit and a violin; what else does a man need to be happy? -Albert Einstein-
Violin playing is a physical art with great traditions behind it.
-Vanessa Mae-
Happiness is a thing to be practiced, like the violin.
-John Lubbock-
The cello is the most perfect instrument aside from the human voice
-Zuill Bailey-
The cello is like a beautiful women who has not grown older, but younger with time, more slender, more supple, more graceful.
-Pablo Casals-
Isn't it sounds great? The sound of violin and cello can make you happy as the quotes said.
I also like the shape of this instruments! It's one of the sexiest instruments :P
