I love you not because of who you are, but because of who I am when I am with you.

You yourself, as much as anybody in the entire universe, deserve your love and affection.

When I saw you I fell in love, and you smiled because you knew it.

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

To love and be loved is to feel the sun from both sides.

Love and compassion are necessities, not luxuries. Without them humanity cannot survive.

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

When we are in love we seem to ourselves quite different from what we were before.

True love cannot be found where it does not exist, nor can it be denied where it does.

Love recognizes no barriers. It jumps hurdles, leaps fences, penetrates walls to arrive at its destination full of hope.

The best thing to hold onto in life is each other.

You know you’re in love when you can’t fall asleep because reality is finally better than your dreams.

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

Once the realization is accepted that even between the closest human beings infinite distances continue, a wonderful living side by side can grow, if they succeed in loving the distance between them which makes it possible for each to see the other whole against the sky.

We are most alive when we're in love.

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

Life is the flower for which love is the honey.

In your life, my infinite dreams live.

Our first and last love is self-love.

Love will find a way through paths where wolves fear to prey.

Love has no age, no limit; and no death.

My wish is that you may be loved to the point of madness.

The giving of love is an education in itself.

It is impossible to love and to be wise.

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