Love

Love is rarer than genius itself. And friendship is rarer than love.
- Peguy, Charles
Love Motivational Quotes



Best Quotes about Love

1.
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

2.
Love comes when manipulation stops; when you think more about the other person than about his or her reactions to you. When you dare to reveal yourself fully. When you dare to be vulnerable.
Brothers, Dr. Joyce

3.
In a separation it is the one who is not really in loved who says the more tender things.
Proust, Marcel

4.
When desire, having rejected reason and overpowered judgment which leads to right, is set in the direction of the pleasure which beauty can inspire, and when again under the influence of its kindred desires it is moved with violent motion towards the beauty of corporeal forms, it acquires a surname from this very violent motion, and is called love.
Socrates

5.
There is always some madness in love. But there is also always some reason in madness.
Friedrich Nietzsche

6.
Love surfeits not, Lust like a glutton dies; Love is all truth, Lust full of forged lies.
William Shakespeare

7.
Love means the body, the soul, the life, the entire being. We feel love as we feel the warmth of our blood, we breathe love as we breathe air, we hold it in ourselves as we hold our thoughts. Nothing more exists for us.
Maupassant, Guy de

8.
We love because it's the only true adventure.
Giovanni, Nikki

9.
When a man and a woman have an overwhelming passion for each other, it seems to me, in spite of such obstacles dividing them as parents or husband, that they belong to each other in the name of Nature, and are lovers by Divine right, in spite of human convention or the laws.
Chamfort, Sebastien-Roch Nicolas De

10.
Everyone of us needs to show how much we care for each other and, in the process, care for ourselves.
Diana, Princess of Wales

11.
It is not love that should be depicted as blind, but self-love.
Voltaire

12.
Human Love... It is that extra creation that stands hurt and baffled at the place of death. Being human, wanting children and sunlight and breath to go on, forever.
Leach, Christopher

13.
To love another person is to see the face of God. [Les Miserables]
Hugo, Victor

14.
Love is a given, hatred is acquired.
Horton, Doug

15.
Don't hold to anger, hurt or pain. They steal your energy and keep you from love.
Buscaglia, Leo

16.
It is easier to keep half a dozen lovers guessing than to keep one lover after he has stopped guessing.
Rowland, Helen

17.
Saddest Poem

I can write the saddest poem of all tonight.

Write, for instance: The night is full of stars,
and the stars, blue, shiver in the distance.

The night wind whirls in the sky and sings.

I can write the saddest poem of all tonight.
I loved her, and sometimes she loved me too.

On nights like this, I held her in my arms. I kissed her so many times under the infinite sky.

She loved me, sometimes I loved her.
How could I not have loved her large, still eyes?

I can write the saddest poem of all tonight.
To think I don't have her. To feel that I've lost her.

To hear the immense night, more immense without her.
And the poem falls to the soul as dew to grass.

What does it matter that my love couldn't keep her.
The night is full of stars and she is not with me.

That's all. Far away, someone sings. Far away.
My soul is lost without her.

As if to bring her near, my eyes search for her.
My heart searches for her and she is not with me.

The same night that whitens the same trees.
We, we who were, we are the same no longer.

I no longer love her, true, but how much I loved her.
My voice searched the wind to touch her ear.

Someone else's. She will be someone else's. As she once
belonged to my kisses.
Her voice, her light body. Her infinite eyes.

I no longer love her, true, but perhaps I love her.
Love is so short and oblivion so long.

Because on nights like this I held her in my arms,
my soul is lost without her.

Although this may be the last pain she causes me,
and this may be the last poem I write for her.
Neruda, Pablo

18.
You make me understand how wonderful it is for little lizards when they find that one special rock that's perfect for sunning themselves on. You make me lizard-happy.
Randy K. Milholland

19.
The more one loves a mistress, the more one is ready to hate her.
La Rochefoucauld, Francois De

20.
If I love you Wednesday, What is that to you? I do not love you Thursday -- so much is true.
Millay, Edna St. Vincent

21.
Never pretend to a love which you do not actually feel, for love is not ours to command.
Alan Watts

22.
I pay very little regard...to what any young person says on the subject of marriage. If they profess a disinclination for it, I only set it down that they have not yet seen the right person.
Jane Austen

23.
When once estrangement has arisen between those who truly love each other, everything seems to widen the breach.
Braddon, Mary Elizabeth

24.
To dream of the person you would like to be is to waste the person you are.

25.
Only from the heart Can you touch the sky.
Rumi, Jalal-Uddin

26.
A man can go from being a lover to being a stranger in three moves flat but a woman under the guise of friendship will engage in acts of duplicity which come to light very much later. There are different species of self-justification.
Brookner, Anita

27.
Love works a different way in different minds, the fool it enlightens and the wise it blinds.
Dryden, John

28.
Don't smother each other. No one can grow in the shade.
Buscaglia, Leo

29.
Live for love. Without love, you don't live.

30.
When you feel good about yourself, others will feel good about you, too.
Steinfeld, Jake

31.
There is an important difference between love and friendship. While the former delights in extremes and opposites, the latter demands equality.
Maintenon, Francoise D'Aubegne

32.
Self-love, my liege, is not so vile a sin as self-neglecting.
William Shakespeare

33.
Love is or it ain't. Thin love ain't love at all.
Toni Morrison

34.
I don't want to live -- I want to love first, and live incidentally.
Fitzgerald, Zelda

35.
Love is not blind - it sees more, not less. But because it sees more, it is willing to see less.
Rabbi Julius Gordon

36.
At the touch of love, everyone becomes a poet.
Plato

37.
For one human being to love another: that is perhaps the most difficult of all our tasks, the ultimate, the last test and proof, the work for which all other work is but preparation.
Rilke, Rainer Maria

38.
When love is in excess it brings a man no honor nor worthiness.
Euripides

39.
I try to give to the poor people for love what the rich could get for money. No, I wouldn't touch a leper for a thousand pounds; yet I willingly cure him for the love of God.
Mother Teresa

40.
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

41.
Love is shown in your deeds, not in your words.
Cummings, Fr. Jerome

42.
What does love look like? It has the hands to help others. It has the feet to hasten to the poor and needy. It has eyes to see misery and want. It has the ears to hear the sighs and sorrows of men. That is what love looks like.
Augustine, St.

43.
As Plato sometimes speaks of the divine love, it arises not out of indigency, as created love does, but out of fullness and redundancy; it is an overflowing fountain, and that love which descends upon created being is a free efflux from the almighty source of love; and it is well pleasing to him that those creatures which he hath made should partake of it.

44.
The more you like yourself, the less you are like anyone else, which makes you unique.
Disney, Walt

45.
Love life and life will love you back. Love people and they will love you back.
Rubinstein, Arthur

46.
It is difficult to know at what moment love begins; it is less difficult to know that it has begun.
Longfellow, Henry Wadsworth

47.
Age does not protect you from love. But love, to some extent, protects you from age.
Jeanne Moreau

48.
An orange on the table, your dress on the rug, and you in my bed, sweet present of the present, cool of night, warmth of my life.
Prevert, Jacques

49.
You are my lover and I am your mistress and kingdoms and empires and governments have tottered and succumbed before now to that mighty combination.
Trefusis, Violet

50.
We can only learn to love by loving.
Iris Murdoch
