You will never know true happiness
until you have truly loved,
and you will never understand
all reason is against it,
and all healthy instinct for it.
Samuel Butler, Life and love
A simple I love you means more than money
True love cannot be found where it truly does not exist,
Nor can it be hidden where it truly does.
Love: a temporary insanity, curable by marriage...
A mighty pain to love it is, and 'tis a pain that pain to miss;
So much of what we know of love we learn at home.
You don't marry someone you can live with - you
marry the person who you cannot live without.
Love is blind, but friendship closes its eyes.
Life has taught us that love does not
consist in gazing at each other
but in looking outward together
A kiss is a lovely trick designed by nature to stop
speech when words become superfluous.
Love built on beauty, soon as beauty, dies.
He that falls in love with himself will have no rivals.
To be in love is merely to be In a state of perpetual anesthesia:
To mistake an ordinary young man for a Greek god
Or an ordinary young woman for a goddess.
Life without love is like a tree
Without blossom and fruit.
I love thee, I love but thee
With a love that shall not die
Easy to begin but hard to end.
Love is a many splendid thing.
Love lifts us up where we belong.
Other men said they have seen angels,
But I have seen thee And thou art enough.
I would fly you to the moon
I love you - those three words have my life in them.
Alexandrea
are tiny matters compared
I have been astonished that men could die martyrs
for their religion I have shuddered at it. I shudder no more
I could be martyred for my religion Love is my religion
And I could die for that. I could die for you.
I'd like to run away From you,
But if you didn't come And find me
When you love someone, all your
saved-up wishes start coming out.
The greatest thing you'll ever learn
Is to love and be loved in return.
Soul meets soul on lover's lips.
I have found men who didn't know how to kiss.
I've always found time to teach them.
