Grief is the price we pay for love.

Lovers don't finally meet somewhere. They're in each other all along.

But I do love thee! and when I love thee not, Chaos is come again.

Sometimes, only one person is missing, and the whole world seems depopulated.

To find yourself, think for yourself.

Genuine love is volitional rather than emotional.

A woman should soften but not weaken a man.

A loving heart is the truest wisdom.

Who could refrain that had a heart to love and in that heart courage to make love known?

Don't tell a woman she's pretty; tell her there's no other woman like her, and all roads will open to you

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

Be careful of love. It'll twist your brain around and leave you thinking up is down and right is wrong.

Rekindled love is generally short-term.

Love is like a flower-you've got to let it grow.

To fear love is to fear life, and those whose fear life are already three parts dead...

Put your hand on a hot stove for a minute, and it seems like an hour. Sit with a pretty girl for an hour, and it seems like a minute. That's relativity.

You know what charm is: a way of getting the answer yes without having asked any clear question.

It is good to love many things, for therein lies strength, and whosoever loves much performs much, and can accomplish much, and what is done with love is well done.

Grief and sadness knits two hearts in closer bonds that happiness ever can; and common sufferings are far stronger than common joys.

Where love rules, there is no will to power, and where power predominates, love is lacking. The one is the shadow of the other.

Love is the free exercise of choice. Two people love each other only when they are quite capable of living without each other but choose to live with each other.
