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

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

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

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.

Love is so short, forgetting is so long.

The more one judges, the less one loves.

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

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

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

It is impossible to love and to be wise.

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

Romance is the glamour which turns the dust of everyday life into a golden haze.

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

In your life, my infinite dreams live.

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

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

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 a friendship set to music.

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

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 know what love is, it is because of you.

A man is already halfway in love with any woman who listens to him.

The giving of love is an education in itself.

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

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