The heart will turn to a prune if love is always by the numbers. How will you know if someone really loves you if they only meet your expectations and not your needs?

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

We can live without religion and meditation, but we cannot survive without human affection.

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.

Ultimately love is everything.

It's better to say too much, than never to say what you need to say again.

I have decided to stick with love. Hate is too great a burden to bear.

A mother's love for her child is like nothing else in the world. It knows no law, no pity. It dares all things and crushes down remorselessly all that stands in its path.

Love does not alter the beloved, it alters itself.

This is the true measure of love, When we believe that we alone can love, That no one could ever have loved so before us, And that no one will ever love in the same way after us.

We are all born for love; it is the principle of existence and its only end.

Perhaps the feelings that we experience when we are in love represent a normal state. Being in love shows a person who he should be.

Speak low, if you speak love.

The real lover is the man who can thrill you by kissing your forehead or smiling into your eyes or just staring into space

If I love you, what business is it of yours?

To love for the sake of being loved is human, but to love for the sake of loving is angelic.

Wheresoever you go, go with all your heart.

There is nothing more truly artistic than to love people.

Nothing can be loved or hated unless it is first understood.

Anyone who loves in the expectation of being loved in return is wasting their time.

When we love, we always strive to become better than we are. When we strive to become better than we are, everything around us becomes better too.
