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

To be your friend was all I ever wanted; to be your lover was all I ever dreamed.

To love oneself is the beginning of a lifelong romance.

You know it's love when all you want is that person to be happy, even if you're not part of their happiness.

When you arise in the morning, think of what a precious privilege it is to be alive – to breathe, to think, to enjoy, to love.

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 love we give away is the only love we keep.

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

Romance is the glamour which turns the dust of everyday life into a golden haze.

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

All you need is love. But a little chocolate now and then doesn’t hurt.

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

Love is an act of endless forgiveness, a tender look which becomes a habit.

At the touch of love everyone becomes a poet.

Flatter me, and I may not believe you. Criticize me, and I may not like you. Ignore me, and I may not forgive you. Encourage me, and I will not forget you. Love me and I may be forced to love you.

A flower cannot blossom without sunshine, and man cannot live without love.

The more one judges, the less one loves.

If I know what love is, it is because of you.

There is only one happiness in this life, to love and be loved.

Life is the flower for which love is the honey.

When you look at me, when you think of me, I am in paradise.

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

I know what love is, it is because of you.

In your life, my infinite dreams live.

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