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

The giving of love is an education in itself.

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

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

Love is a friendship set to music.

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

To be your friend was all I ever wanted; to be your lover was all I ever dreamed.

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

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

Keep love in your heart. A life without it is like a sunless garden when the flowers are dead.

When we are in love we seem to ourselves quite different from what we were before.

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

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

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 does not dominate; it cultivates.

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

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

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

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

One word frees us of all the weight and pain of life: that word is love.

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

We are most alive when we're in love.

Don't brood. Get on with living and loving. You don't have forever.

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.

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