Only married people understand you can be miserable and happy at the same time.

Love possesses not nor will it be possessed, for love is sufficient unto love.

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

The difference between the love of a man and the love of a woman is that a man will always give reasons for loving, but a woman gives no reasons for loving.

A woman should soften but not weaken a man.

Kind words can be short and easy to speak, but their echoes are truly endless.

Those who intend on becoming great should love neither themselves nor their own things, but only what is just, whether it happens to be done by themselves or others.

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

Real love is a permanently self-enlarging experience.

There can be no deep disappointment where there is not deep love.

Have a heart that never hardens, and a temper that never tires, and a touch that never hurts.

Women are still in emotional bondage as long as we need to worry that we might have to make a choice between being heard and being loved.

I am good, but not an angel. I do sin, but I am not the devil. I am just a small girl in a big world trying to find someone to love.

If a thing loves, it is infinite.

Love would never leave us alone.

Ever has it been that love knows not its own depth until the hour of separation.

We are never so defenseless against suffering as when we love.

Speak low, if you speak love.

It was the first time I was ever in love, and I learned a lot. Before that I'd never even thought about killing myself.

One who has loved truly can never lose entirely.

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