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

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

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

Love is a friendship set to music.

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

Love recognizes no barriers. It jumps hurdles, leaps fences, penetrates walls to arrive at its destination full of hope.

We are shaped and fashioned by what we love.

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.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

I know what love is, it is because of you.

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

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

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

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

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

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