It is impossible to love and to be wise.

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

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.

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

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

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

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

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

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

Love is so short, forgetting is so long.

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

To love and be loved is to feel the sun from both sides.

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

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

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

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

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

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.

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

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

Life is the flower for which love is the honey.

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

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

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