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

Your task is not to seek for love, but merely to seek and find all the barriers within yourself that you have built against it.

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.

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.

Love is the strange bewilderment which overtakes one person on account of another person.

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

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.

Our first and last love is self-love.

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

Love many things, for therein lies the true strength, and whosoever loves much performs much, and can accomplish much, and what is done in love is done well.

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

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.

Love is so short, forgetting is so long.

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

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

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

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

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

In all the world, there is no heart for me like yours.  In all the world, there is no love for you like mine.

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

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

The love we give away is the only love we keep.

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

One word frees us of all the weight and pain of life: that word is love.

Love takes off masks that we fear we cannot live without and know we cannot live within.
