Your task is not to seek for love, but merely to seek and find all the barriers within yourself that you have built against it.

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.

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

The giving of love is an education in itself.

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

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

The more one judges, the less one loves.

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

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.

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

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.

Love is of all passions the strongest, for it attacks simultaneously the head, the heart and the senses.

You yourself, as much as anybody in the entire universe, deserve your love and affection.

We are shaped and fashioned by what we love.

True love cannot be found where it does not exist, nor can it be denied where it does.

In your life, my infinite dreams live.

Love is so short, forgetting is so long.

Our first and last love is self-love.

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

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

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

We're born alone, we live alone, we die alone. Only through our love and friendship can we create the illusion for the moment that we're not alone.

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

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