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

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

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

Love is so short, forgetting is so long.

A man is already halfway in love with any woman who listens to him.

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

A kiss is a lovely trick designed by nature to stop speech when words become superfluous.

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.

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.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

I swear I couldn’t love you more than I do right now, and yet I know I will tomorrow.

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

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

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

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

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

True love is like ghosts, which everyone talks about and few have seen.

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.

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.
