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

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

Love is the magician that pulls man out of his own hat.

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

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

Life is the flower for which love is the honey.

Kindness in words creates confidence. Kindness in thinking creates profoundness. Kindness in giving creates love.

Love is so short, forgetting is so long.

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

Our first and last love is self-love.

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.

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

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

The giving of love is an education in itself.

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.

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

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

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

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

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

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.

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.

To love oneself is the beginning of a lifelong romance.

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.
