Other men said they have seen angels, But I have seen thee And thou art enough.

I love you - those three words have my life in them.

What lies behind us, and what lies before us are tiny matters compared to what lies within us.

I have been astonished that men could die martyrs for their religion -
I have shudder'd at it.
I shudder no more.
I could be martyr'd for my religion
Love is my religion
And I could die for that.
I could die for you.

I'd like to run away
From you,
But if you didn't come
And find me ...
I would die.

When you love someone, all your saved-up wishes start coming out.

The greatest thing you'll ever learn
Is to love and be loved in return.

Soul meets soul on lover's lips.

I have found men who didn't know how to kiss.
I've always found time to teach them.

No man is truly married until he understands every word his wife is NOT saying.

You will never know true happiness until you have truly loved, and you will never understand
what pain really is until you have lost it.

To live is like to love - all reason is against it, and all healthy instinct for it.

....A simple I love you means more than money....

True love cannot be found where it truly does not exist,
Nor can it be hidden where it truly does.

Love: a temporary insanity, curable by marriage...

To be in love is merely to be
In a state of perpetual anesthesia:
To mistake an ordinary young man for a Greek god
Or an ordinary young woman for a goddess.

Life without love is like a tree
Without blossom and fruit.

I love thee, I love but thee
With a love that shall not die
Till the sun grows cold
And the stars grow old.

Love is like war,
Easy to begin but hard to end.

Seduce my mind and you can have my body,
Find my soul and I'm yours forever.

So dear I love him that with him,
All deaths I could endure.
Without him, live no life.

Love is like a friendship caught on fire.
In the beginning a flame, very pretty,
Often hot and fierce,
But still only light and flickering.
As love grows older,
Our hearts mature
And our love becomes as coals,
Deep-burning and unquenchable.

I have loved to the point of madness;
That which is called madness,
That which to me,
Is the only sensible way to love.

She walks in beauty,
Like the night of cloudless climes and starry skies;
And all that's best of dark and bright
Meet in her aspect and her eyes.

Your voice makes me tremble inside
And your smile is an invitation
For my imagination to go wild.

One word frees us
Of all the weight and pain in life,
That word is Love

I have learned not to worry about love;
But to honor its coming with all my heart.

To love a person is to learn the song
That is in their heart,
And to sing it to them
When they have forgotten.

Did my heart love till now?
Forswear it sight,
For I ne'er saw true beauty till this night.

The most precious possession that ever comes
To a man in this world
Is a woman's heart.

And think not you can
Direct the course of love,
For love,
If it finds you worthy,
Directs your course.

Love is a wonderful thing.
You never have to take it away
From one person to give it to another.
There's always more than enough to go around.

Love asks me no questions,
And gives me endless support...

A kiss is a lovely trick designed by nature
To stop speech when words become superfluous.

Love is like a rumor,
Everyone talks about it,
But no one truly knows.

Love is like swallowing hot chocolate
Before it has cooled off.
It takes you by surprise at first,
But keeps you warm for a long time.

My love for you is a journey;
Starting at forever,
And ending at never.

Love is a haunting melody
That I have never mastered
And I fear I never will.

A fool in love makes no sense to me.
I only think you are a fool
If you do not love.

Once in awhile,
Right in the middle of an ordinary life,
Love gives us a fairy tale.


True poets don't write
Their thoughts with a pen...
They release the ink that flows
From within their heart.

The only things in life you regret,
Are the risks that you didn't take.

You love simply because you cannot help it.

The greatest healing therapy is friendship and love.

Hearts are not to be had as a gift
earts are to be earned...

True love doesn't have a happy ending:
True love doesn't have an ending.

You don't love a woman because she's beautiful,
She is beautiful because you love her.

Love is not a matter of counting the years...
But making the years count.

Only love let's us see normal things
In an extraordinary way.

A heart that loves is always young.

To get the full value of joy
You must have someone to divide it with.

Love doesn't sit there like a stone.
It has to be made like bread;
Remade all the time,
...Made new.

My bounty is as boundless as the sea,
My love as deep;
The more I give to thee
The more I have,
For both are infinite.

Love is that condition in which
The happiness of another person
Is essential to your own.

I only wish to be the fountain of love
From which you drink,
Every drop promising eternal passion.

If I know what love is,
It is because of you.

You may only be one person to the world
But you may also be the world to one person.

A part of you has grown in me.
And so you see, it's you and me
Together forever and never apart,
Maybe in distance, but never in heart.

Age does not protect us from love,
But love to some extent protects us from age.

You can give without loving,
But you cannot love without giving.

There are no guarantees.
From the viewpoint of fear,
None are strong enough.
From the viewpoint of love,
None are necessary.

To love is to receive a glimpse of heaven.

Love has no other desire but to fulfill itself
But if your love and must needs have desires,
Let these be your desires:-
To melt and be like a running brook
That sings its melody to the night.
To know the pain of too much tenderness.
To be wounded by your own understanding of love;
And to bleed willingly and joyfully.
To wake at dawn with a winged heart
And give thanks for another day of loving;
To rest at the noon hour and meditate love's ecstasy;
To return home at eventide with gratitude;
And then to sleep with a prayer
For the beloved in your heart
And a song of praise upon your lips.

Husbands ought to love their wives as their own bodies. He who loves his wife loves himself. After all, no one ever hated his own body, but he feeds and cares for it .. For this reason a man will leave his father and mother and be united to his wife, and the two will become one flesh.

Love doesn't make the world go round,
Love is what makes the ride worthwhile.

Love me without fear
Trust me without questioning
Need me without demanding
Want me without restrictions
Accept me without change
Desire me without inhibitions
For a love so free....
Will never fly away.

Love is a burning desire,
That makes your heart light on fire,
Love is being with you,
Someone saying I love you too,
Love is your tender kiss,
Something you don't want to miss,
Love is you and me,
And that is all I see.

If I go away
What would still remain of me?
The ghost within your eyes?
The whisper in your sighs?
You see...Believe
And I'm always there.

The greatest weakness of most humans
Is their hesitancy to tell others,
How much they love them
While they're alive.

My love, you know you are my best friend.
You know that I'd do anything for you
And my love, let nothing come between us.
My love for you is strong and true.

I sought for Love
But Love ran away from me.
I sought my Soul
But my Soul I couldn't see.
Then I sought You,
And I found all three.

The best feelings are those that
Have no words to describe them....

Let the world stop turning,
Let the sun stop burning,
Let them tell me love's not worth going through.
If it all falls apart,
I will know deep in my heart,
The only dream that mattered had come true
...In this life I was loved by you.

We are all born for love...
it is the principle existence and it's only end.

We can only learn to love by loving.

May no gift be too small to give,
nor too simple to receive,
which is wrapped in thoughtfulness
and tied with love.

Love is the master key that opens the gates of happiness.

The minute I heard my first love story,
I started looking for you, not knowing how blind that was.
Lovers don't finally meet somewhere.
They're in each other all along.

Love is a fruit in season at all times,
and within the reach of every hand.

Since love grows within you, so beauty grows.
For love is the beauty of the soul.

What the heart gives away is never gone ...
It is kept in the hearts of others.

The human heart, at whatever age,
opens to the heart that opens in return.

Accept the things
To which fate binds you and
Love the people with whom fate
Brings you together
But do so with all your heart.

Love, you know, seeks to make happy rather than to be happy.

Absence sharpens love, presence strengthens it.

The night has a thousand eyes, And the day but one;
Yet the light of the bright world dies, With the dying sun.
The mind has a thousand eyes, And the heart but one;
Yet the light of a whole life dies, When love is done.

Paradise is always where love dwells.

True love is eternal, infinite, and always like itself. It is equal and pure, without violent demonstrations: it is seen with white hairs and is always young in the heart.

The greatest tragedy of life is not that men perish,
but that they cease to love.

Romantic love is a passionate spiritual-emotional-sexual attachment between a man and a woman that reflects a high regard for the value of each other's person.

Listening is an attitude of the heart, a genuine desire to be with another which both attracts and heals.

Being deeply loved by someone gives you strength,
While loving someone deeply gives you courage.

Even though there may be times
It seems I'm far away
Never wonder where I am
'Cause I am always by your side.

Things base and vile, holding no quantity,
Love can transpose to form and dignity.
Love looks not with the eye, but with the mind,
And therefore is winged Cupid painted blind.

A happy marriage has in it all the pleasures of friendships, all the enjoyment of sense and reason - and indeed all the sweets of life.

Love does not die easily.
It is a living thing.
It thrives in the face
of all life's hazards,
save one--neglect.

Some pray to marry the man they love,
my prayer will somewhat vary:
I humbly pray to Heaven above
that I love the man I marry.

The most eloquent silence; that of two mouths meeting in a kiss.

Love cannot endure indifference. It needs to be wanted. Like a lamp, it needs to be fed out of the oil of another's heart, or its flame burns low.

The person who tries to live alone will not succeed as a human being. His heart withers if it does not answer another heart. His mind shrinks away if he hears only the echoes of his own thoughts and finds no other inspiration.

Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It is not rude, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres.

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

Love is the emblem of eternity: it confounds all notion of time: effaces all memory of a beginning, all fear of an end.

Come live in my heart, and pay no rent.

The life and love we create is the life and love we live.

Love looks through a telescope; envy through a microscope.

For every beauty there is an eye somewhere to see it. For every truth there is an ear somewhere to hear it. For every love there is a heart somewhere to receive it.

Love puts the fun in together,
The sad in apart,
The hope in tomorrow,
The joy in the heart.

A goal, a love and a dream give you total control over your body and your life.

Opposites attract, but after marriage, opposites attack. Most of the time, we are attracted to people who don't have the things that we have. Incompatibility is why we get married, but it's also used as a reason to divorce.
Incompatibility is just a lack of communication. If we just try to love [our spouse] the way we want to be loved, we are in trouble. Unless you communicate, it's difficult to know how to love another person.

True love begins when nothing is looked for in return.

In dreams and in love there are no impossibilities.

Just because someone doesn't love you
in the way you want them to,
doesn't mean that they don't love you
with all they've got.

Love withers with predictability; its very essence is surprise and amazement. To make love a prisoner of the mundane is to take its passion and lose it forever.

Smile at each other, smile at your wife,
smile at your husband, smile at your children,
smile at each other--it doesn't matter who it is--
and that will help you to grow up in greater love
for each other.

A man falls in love through his eyes,
a woman through her ears.

Love knows no reasons,
love knows no lies.
Love defies all reasons,
love has no eyes.
But love is not blind,
love sees but doesn't mind.

Love is sometimes denied, sometimes lost,
sometimes unrecognized, but in the end,
always found with no regrets, forever valued
and kept treasured.

Sometimes we let affection,
go unspoken,
Sometimes we let our love
go unexpressed,
Sometimes we can't find words to tell
our feelings,
Especially towards those
we love the best.

The most wonderful of all things in life is the discovery of another human being with whom one's relationship has a growing depth, beauty and joy as the years increase. This inner progressiveness of love between two human beings is a most marvellous thing; it cannot be found by looking for it or by passionately wishing for it. It is a sort of divine accident, and the most wonderful of all things in life.

Love means to commit oneself without guarantee, to give oneself completely in the hope that our love will produce love in the loved person. Love is an act of faith, and whoever is of little faith is also of little love.

Think about it, there must be higher love
Down in the heart or hidden in the stars above
Without it, life is a wasted time
Look inside your heart, I'll look inside mine.

Love does not consist in gazing at each other
but in looking together in the same direction.

You come to love not by finding the perfect person,
but by seeing an imperfect person perfectly.

Love is always bestowed as a gift --
freely, willingly, and without expectation....
We don't love to be loved; we love to love.

Love grows by giving. The love we give away is the only love we keep. The only way to retain love is to give it away.

The most powerful symptom of love is a tenderness which becomes at times almost insupportable.

Inside the heart of each and every one of us there is a longing to be understood by someone who really cares. When a person is understood, he or she can put up with almost anything in the world.

True happiness and a fullness of joy can be found only in the tender and intimate relationships of the family. However earnestly we may seek success and happiness outside the home through work, leisure activities, or large bank accounts, we will never be fully satisfied emotionally until we develop deep and loving relationships.

The most precious possession that ever comes to a man in this world is a woman's heart.

What we need to know about loving is no great mystery. We all know what constitutes loving behavior; we need but act upon it, not continually question it. Over-analysis often confuses the issue and in the end brings us no closer to insight. We sometimes become too busy classifying, separating, and examining, to remember that love is easy. It's we who make it complicated.

Romantic love reaches out in little ways, showing attention and admiration. Romantic love remembers what pleases a woman, what excites her, and what surprises her. Its actions whisper: you are the most special person in my life.

From every human being there rises a light that reaches straight to heaven. And when two souls that are destined to be together find each other, their streams of light flow together, and a single brighter light goes forth from their united being.

It is the things in common
that make relationships enjoyable,
but it is the little differences
that make them interesting.

Love is always open arms. If you close your arms about love you will find that you are left holding only yourself.

My heart to you is given:
Oh, do give yours to me;
We'll lock them up together,
And throw away the key.

The heart is the place where we live our passions. It is frail and easily broken, but wonderfully resilient. There is no point in trying to deceive the heart. It depends upon our honesty for its survival.

There is only one happiness in life: to love and be loved.

Love is an act of endless forgiveness
A tender look which becomes a habit.

The best and most beautiful things in this world cannot be seen or even heard, but must be felt with the heart.

The courses of true love never did run smooth.

But true love is a durable fire,
In the mind ever burning,
Never sick, never old, never dead,
From itself never turning.

Some people come into our lives and quickly go.
Some people move our souls to dance. They awaken us to new understanding with the passing whisper of their wisdom.
Some people make the sky more beautiful to gaze upon.
They stay in our lives for awhile, leave footprints on our hearts, and we are never ever the same.
