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.

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

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.

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

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

Love is a friendship set to music.

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.

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

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.

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

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 in its essence is spiritual fire.

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.

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

You make me want to be a better man.

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

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.

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

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

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

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

To love and be loved is to feel the sun from both sides.

Love does not dominate; it cultivates.

Love is of all passions the strongest, for it attacks simultaneously the head, the heart and the senses.
