Best Quotes about Love

But love is blind, and lovers cannot see What petty follies they themselves commit

Shakespeare, William

By this all men will know that you are my disciples, if you have love for one another. [John 13:35]

Bible

Every day I live I am more convinced that the waste of life lies in the love we have not given, the powers we have not used, the selfish prudence that will risk nothing and which, shirking pain, misses happiness as well.

Cholmondeley, Mary

When love begins to sicken and decay, it useth an enforced ceremony.

William Shakespeare

Every man loves what he is good at.

Shadwell, Thomas

Love is like a fruit. It may look good, but you shouldn't bite in it until it's ripe.

Hertl, Nick

The greatest happiness of life is the conviction that we are loved, loved for ourselves, or rather loved in spite of ourselves.

Hugo, Victor

Love is as much of an object as an obsession, everybody wants it, everybody seeks it, but few ever achieve it, those who do will cherish it, be lost in it, and among all, never... never forget it.

Judalet, Curtis

It is easier to keep half a dozen lovers guessing than to keep one lover after he has stopped guessing.

Rowland, Helen

10.

For where there is true love, a man is neither out of measure lifted up by prosperity, nor cast down by mishap; whether you give or take away from him, so long as he keeps his beloved, he has a spring of inward peace. Thus, even though thy outward man grieve, or weep downright, that may well be borne, if only thy inner man remain at peace, perfectly content with the will of God.

Tauler, Johannes

11.

It is difficult to know at what moment love begins; it is less difficult to know that it has begun.

Longfellow, Henry Wadsworth

12.

God loves each of us as if there were only one of us.

Augustine, St.

13.

Real love is a pilgrimage. It happens when there is no strategy, but it is very rare because most people are strategists.

Brookner, Anita

14.

Love and pity and wish well to every soul in the world; dwell in love, and then you dwell in God.

Law, William

15.

True love makes the thought of death frequent, easy, without terrors; it merely becomes the standard of comparison, the price one would pay for many things.

Stendhal, Henri B.

16.

Our affections as well as our bodies are in perpetual flux.

Rousseau, Jean Jacques

17.

Do all things with love.

Mandino, Og

18.

True love grows by sacrifice and the more thoroughly the soul rejects natural satisfaction the stronger and more detached its tenderness becomes.

Theresa of Lisieux, St.

19.

It is of practical value to learn to like yourself. Since you must spend so much time with yourself you might as well get some satisfaction out of the relationship.

Peale, Norman Vincent

20.

Life and love are life and love, a bunch of violets is a bunch of violets, and to drag in the idea of a point is to ruin everything. Live and let live, love and let love, flower and fade, and follow the natural curve, which flows on, pointless.

Lawrence, D. H.

21.

Sometimes when you look back on a situation, you realize it wasn't all you thought it was. A beautiful girl walked into your life. You fell in love. Or did you? Maybe it was only a childish infatuation, or maybe just a brief moment of vanity.

Henry Bromel

22.

All fancy-sick she is and pale of cheer, with sighs of love, that costs the fresh blood dear.

William Shakespeare

23.

Loving can cost a lot but not loving always costs more, and those who fear to love often find that want of love is an emptiness that robs the joy from life.

Shan, Merle

24.

The only victory over love is flight.

Bonaparte, Napoleon

25.

Can there be a love which does not make demands on its object?

Confucius

26.

Love, all alike, no season knows, nor clime, nor hours, days, months, which are the rags of time.

Donne, John

27.

Love yourself unconditionally, just as you love those closest to you despite their faults.

Brown, Les

28.

I do not love you

I do not love you as if you were salt-rose, or topaz,
or the arrow of carnations the fire shoots off.
I love you as certain dark things are to be loved,
in secret, between the shadow and the soul.

I love you as the plant that never blooms
but carries in itself the light of hidden flowers;
thanks to your love a certain solid fragrance,
risen from the earth, lives darkly in my body.

I love you without knowing how, or when, or from where.
I love you straightforwardly, without complexities or pride;
so I love you because I know no other way

that this: where I does not exist, nor you,
so close that your hand on my chest is my hand,
so close that your eyes close as I fall asleep.

Neruda, Pablo

29.

Love is not blind -- it sees more, not less. But because it sees more, it is willing to see less.

Gordon, Rabbi J.

30.

Love will find a way. Indifference will find an excuse.

31.

Before I met my husband, I'd never fallen in love, though I'd stepped in it a few times.

Rita Rudner

32.

The love boat has crashed against the everyday.

Mayakovsky, Vladimir

Love the whole world as a mother lovers her only child.

Buddha

34.

When a person is uncertain in love, there is nothing easier than for him to put one and one together and to make three out of them.

Monica Fairview

35.

If we really love ourselves, everything in our life works.

Hay, Louise L.

36.

Love is made by two people, in different kinds of solitude. It can be in a crowd, but in an oblivious crowd.

Aragon, Louis

37.

Never pretend to a love which you do not actually feel, for love is not ours to command.

Alan Watts

38.

My first thoughts are that I should not let people down, that I should support them and love them.

Diana, Princess of Wales

39.

Between lovers a little confession is a dangerous thing.

Rowland, Helen

40.

No woman marries for money; they are all clever enough, before marrying a millionaire, to fall in love with him first.

Pavese, Cesare

41.

All love that has not friendship for its base, is like a mansion built upon sand.

Ella Wheeler Wilcox

42.

If there is any country on earth where the course of true love may be expected to run smooth, it is America.

Martineau, Harriet

43.

The ostentation of our love, which, left unshown, is often left unloved.

William Shakespeare

44.

Love is what happens to a man and woman who don't know each other.

Maugham, W. Somerset
