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 an act of endless forgiveness, a tender look which becomes a habit.

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

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

The giving of love is an education in itself.

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

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.

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

The more one judges, the less one loves.

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

Love is so short, forgetting is so long.

Love is the strange bewilderment which overtakes one person on account of another person.

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

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

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

When you look at me, when you think of me, I am in paradise.

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

You know you’re in love when you don’t want to fall asleep because reality is finally better than your dreams.

The best and most beautiful things in this world cannot be seen or even heard but must be felt with the heart.

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.

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

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

Love has no age, no limit; and no death.

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

The most important thing in life is to learn how to give out love, and to let it come in.
