Great Love Thoughts

Section One

Keep love in your heart. A life without it is like a sunless garden when the flowers are dead.

Oscar Wilde

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

Lao Tzu

Friends can help each other. A true friend is someone who lets you have total freedom to be yourself - and especially to feel. Or, not feel. Whatever you happen to be feeling at the moment is fine with them. That's what real love amounts to - letting a person be what he really is.

Jim Morrison

Sometimes the heart sees what is invisible to the eye.

H. Jackson Brown, Jr.

Love is composed of a single soul inhabiting two bodies.

Aristotle

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

Martin Luther King, Jr.

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.

Bruce Lee

Immature love says: 'I love you because I need you.' Mature love says 'I need you because I love you.'

Erich Fromm

Where there is love there is life.

Mahatma Gandhi

Affection is responsible for nine-tenths of whatever solid and durable happiness there is in our lives.

C. S. Lewis

A loving heart is the beginning of all knowledge.

Thomas Carlyle

We're born alone, we live alone, we die alone. Only through our love and friendship can we create the illusion for the moment that we're not alone.

Orson Welles

I have found the paradox, that if you love until it hurts, there can be no more hurt, only more love.

Mother Teresa

Let us always meet each other with smile, for the smile is the beginning of love.

Mother Teresa

Love does not begin and end the way we seem to think it does. Love is a battle, love is a war; love is a growing up.

James A. Baldwin

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

Ingrid Bergman

Gravitation is not responsible for people falling in love.

Albert Einstein

A man reserves his true and deepest love not for the species of woman in whose company he finds himself electrified and enkindled, but for that one in whose company he may feel tenderly drowsy.

George Jean Nathan

Love begins at home, and it is not how much we do... but how much love we put in that action.

Mother Teresa

A flower cannot blossom without sunshine, and man cannot live without love.

Max Muller

Can miles truly separate you from friends...? If you want to be with someone you love, aren't you already there?

Richard Bach

A man is already halfway in love with any woman who listens to him.

Brendan Francis

A woman knows the face of the man she loves as a sailor knows the open sea.

Honore de Balzac

Love is a force more formidable than any other. It is invisible - it cannot be seen or measured, yet it is powerful enough to transform you in a moment, and offer you more joy than any material possession could.

Barbara de Angelis

Time is too slow for those who wait, too swift for those who fear, too long for those who grieve, too short for those who rejoice, but for those who love, time is eternity.

Henry Van Dyke

The first duty of love is to listen.

Paul Tillich

I was born with an enormous need for affection, and a terrible need to give it.

Audrey Hepburn
