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

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.

We are most alive when we're in love.

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

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.

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

We need 4 hugs a day for survival. We need 8 hugs a day for maintenance. We need 12 hugs a day for growth.

Love is a friendship set to music.

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

To love oneself is the beginning of a lifelong romance.

We are shaped and fashioned by what we love.

Love yourself first and everything else falls into line. You really have to love yourself to get anything done in this world.

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

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

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.

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

At the touch of love everyone becomes a poet.

My wish is that you may be loved to the point of madness.

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

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

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

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

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

The giving of love is an education in itself.

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