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

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

We are shaped and fashioned by what we love.

Love does not dominate; it cultivates.

Love is so short, forgetting is so long.

It is impossible to love and to be wise.

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

Our first and last love is self-love.

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.

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

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

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

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

The more one judges, the less one loves.

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.

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

Love is the magician that pulls man out of his own hat.

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

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

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

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

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.

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

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

Love in its essence is spiritual fire.
