Love

I fell in love with the thought that a human life could be a priestly conduit, a connecting link between earth and sky. As I grew and stumbled and, most important, as I began to love and be loved, I realized that the ultimate priest is the lover inside us
- Williamson, Marianne
Love Motivational Quotes



Best Quotes about Love

1.
A false enchantment can all too easily last a lifetime.
Auden, W. H.

2.
Better to have loved a short man than never to have loved a tall.
Chambless, David

3.
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

4.
No woman marries for money; they are all clever enough, before marrying a millionaire, to fall in love with him first.
Pavese, Cesare

5.
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

6.
Love consists not in feeling great things but in having great detachment and in suffering for the Beloved.
John of the Cross, St.

7.
Love, all alike, no season knows, nor clime, nor hours, days, months, which are the rags of time.
Donne, John

8.
In a separation it is the one who is not really in loved who says the more tender things.
Proust, Marcel

9.
Let the first impulse pass, wait for the second.
Gracian, Baltasar

10.
Love is what we are born with. Fear is what we learn. The spiritual journey is the unlearning of fear and prejudices and the acceptance of love back in our hearts. Love is the essential reality and our purpose on earth. To be consciously aware of it, to experience love in ourselves and others, is the meaning of life. Meaning does not lie in things. Meaning lies in us.
Williamson, Marianne

11.
In real love you want the other person's good. In romantic love, you want the other person.
Anderson, Margaret

12.
Love shall be our token; love be yours and love be mine.
Rossetti, Christina

13.
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.

14.
No love is entirely without worth, even when the frivolous calls to the frivolous and the base to the base.
Murdoch, Iris

15.
Love (understood as the desire of good for another) is in fact so unnatural a phenomenon that it can scarcely repeat itself, the soul being unable to become virgin again and not having energy enough to cast itself out again into the ocean of another's soul.
Joyce, James

16.
Love is the cheapest of religions.
Pavese, Cesare

17.
If we seek the pleasures of love, passion should be occasional, and common sense continual.
Davies, Robertson

18.
Only from the heart Can you touch the sky.
Rumi, Jalal-Uddin

19.
And you are to love those who are your aliens for you yourselves were aliens in Egypt. [Deuteronomy 10:19]
Bible

20.
One can be a soldier without dying, and a lover without sighing.
Arnold, Sir Edwin

21.
The supreme happiness of life is the conviction that we are loved; loved for ourselves, or rather in spite of ourselves.
Hugo, Victor

22.
Love alone could waken love.
Buck, Pearl S.

23.
The greatest happiness of life is the conviction that we are loved, loved for ourselves, or rather loved in spite of ourselves.
Hugo, Victor

24.
When once estrangement has arisen between those who truly love each other, everything seems to widen the breach.
Braddon, Mary Elizabeth

25.
If they love they know not why, they hate upon no better ground, they hate upon no better a ground.
William Shakespeare

26.
Immature love says: I love you because I need you. Mature love says: I need you because I love you.
Fromm, Erich

27.
Art is not necessary at all. All that is necessary to make this world a better place to live in is to love --to love as Christ loved, as Buddha loved.
Duncan, Isadora

28.
Love never reasons, but profusely gives; it gives like a thoughtless prodigal its all, and then trembles least it has done to little.
More, Hannah

29.
'Tis the most tender part of love, each other to forgive.
John Sheffield

30.
One word frees us of all the weight and pain of life: That word is love.
Sophocles

31.
To love another person is to see the face of God. [Les Miserables]
Hugo, Victor

32.
I will wear my heart upon my sleeve for daws to peck at.
William Shakespeare

33.
What makes lovers never tire of one another is that they talk always about themselves.
La Rochefoucauld, Francois De

34.
If you could only love enough, you could be the most powerful person in the world.
Fox, Emmet

35.
One who has not only the four S's, which are required in every good lover, but even the whole alphabet; as for example... Agreeable, Bountiful, Constant, Dutiful, Easy, Faithful, Gallant, Honorable, Ingenious, Kind, Loyal, Mild, Noble, Officious, Prudent, Quiet, Rich, Secret, True, Valiant, Wise; the X indeed, is too harsh a letter to agree with him, but he is Young and Zealous.
Cervantes, Miguel De

36.
It is wrong to think that love comes from long companionship and persevering courtship. Love is the offspring of spiritual affinity and unless that affinity is created in a moment, it will not be created for years or even generations.
Gibran, Kahlil

37.
Love is an irresistible desire to be irresistibly desired.
Robert Frost

If you have it [Love], you don't need to have anything else, and if you don't have it, it doesn't matter much what else you have.
Barrie, Sir James M.

43.
He who is in love is wise and is becoming wiser, sees newly every time he looks at the object beloved, drawing from it with his eyes and his mind those virtues which it possesses.
Ralph Waldo Emerson

44.
A man in love is like a clipped coupon -- it's time to cash in.
West, Mae

45.
To fail to love is not to exist at all.
Doren, Mark Van

46.
Fantasy love is much better than reality love. Never doing it is very exciting. The most exciting attractions are between two opposites that never meet.
Warhol, Andy

47.
Love is or it ain't. Thin love ain't love at all.
Toni Morrison

48.
The greatest weakness of most humans is their hesitancy to tell others how much they love them while they're still alive.
Battista, Orlando A.

49.
To always be loved one must ever be agreeable.
Montagu, Lady Mary Wortley

50.
The important thing was to love rather than to be loved.
W. Somerset Maugham
