Love is an untamed force. When we try to control it, it destroys us. When we try to imprison it, it enslaves us. When we try to understand it, it leaves us feeling lost and confused.

A purpose of human life, no matter who is controlling it, is to love whoever is around to be loved.

Love doesn't make the world go 'round. Love is what makes the ride worthwhile.

Love yourself first and everything else falls into line. You really have to love yourself to get anything done in this world.

If you live to be a hundred, I want to live to be a hundred minus one day so I never have to live without you.

Don't brood. Get on with living and loving. You don't have forever.

In your life, my infinite dreams live.

We're born alone, we live alone, we die alone. Only through our love and friendship can we create the illusion for the moment that we're not alone.

Kindness in words creates confidence. Kindness in thinking creates profoundness. Kindness in giving creates love.

I love you as certain dark things are to be loved, in secret, between the shadow and the soul.

We need 4 hugs a day for survival. We need 8 hugs a day for maintenance. We need 12 hugs a day for growth.

The real lover is the man who can thrill you by kissing your forehead or smiling into your eyes or just staring into space.

I swear I couldn’t love you more than I do right now, and yet I know I will tomorrow.

The more one judges, the less one loves.

The best and most beautiful things in this world cannot be seen or even heard but must be felt with the heart.

The only thing we never get enough of is love; and the only thing we never give enough of is love.

The way to love anything is to realize that it may be lost.

You make me want to be a better man.

I think the perfection of love is that it’s not perfect.

Life without love is like a tree without blossoms or fruit.

The giving of love is an education in itself.

Life without love is like a tree without blossoms or fruit.

Love is that condition in which the happiness of another person is essential to your own.

I would rather spend one lifetime with you, than face all the ages of this world alone.

Love in its essence is spiritual fire.
