Love does not dominate; it cultivates.

I would rather spend one lifetime with you, than face all the ages of this world alone.

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

The best and most beautiful things in this world cannot be seen or even heard but must be felt with the heart.

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

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

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

A purpose of human life, no matter who is controlling it, is to love whoever is around to be loved.

The giving of love is an education in itself.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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.

At the touch of love everyone becomes a poet.

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

You know you’re in love when you don’t want to 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.

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

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

I love you not because of who you are, but because of who I am when I am with you.

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

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