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

Love in its essence is spiritual fire.

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

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

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

We are shaped and fashioned by what we love.

Love is so short, forgetting is so long.

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 make me want to be a better man.

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

Life is the flower for which love is the honey.

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

Love is the magician that pulls man out of his own hat.

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

At the touch of love everyone becomes a poet.

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

Love is like the wind, you can’t see it but you can feel it.

Love is a friendship set to music.

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

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

It is impossible to love and to be wise.

The real lover is the man who can thrill you by kissing your forehead or smiling into your eyes or just staring into space.

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

Love is an untamed force. When we try to control it, it destroys us. When we try to imprison it, it enslaves us. When we try to understand it, it leaves us feeling lost and confused.

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