Love is so short, forgetting is so long.

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

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

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 does not dominate; it cultivates.

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

We are shaped and fashioned by what we love.

Love is like the wind, you can’t see it but you can feel it.

The most powerful weapon on earth is the human soul on fire.

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

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

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.

Life is the flower for which love is the honey.

In your life, my infinite dreams live.

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

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

Keep love in your heart. A life without it is like a sunless garden when the flowers are dead.

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

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

To love oneself is the beginning of a lifelong romance.

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

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.

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

The most important thing in life is to learn how to give out love, and to let it come in.
