There is only one happiness in this life, to love and be loved.

The giving of love is an education in itself.

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

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

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

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

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

Love yourself first and everything else falls into line. You really have to love yourself to get anything done in this world.

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.

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

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

Life is the flower for which love is the honey.

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.

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

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.

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

Love is so short, forgetting is so long.

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

Love doesn't make the world go 'round. Love is what makes the ride worthwhile.

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.

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.

Love in its essence is spiritual fire.

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