Mother Teresa

To love someone deeply gives you strength. Being loved by someone deeply gives you courage.
Lao-Tzu

God, I offer myself to Thee, to build with me and to do with me as Thou wilt. Relieve me of the bondage of self, that I may better do Thy will.

Delight yourself in the Lord and He will give you the desires of your heart. Psalm 37:4
BIBLE

I do not think that what is called Love at first sight is so great an absurdity as it is sometimes imagined to be. We generally make up our minds beforehand to the sort of person we should like, grave or gay, black, brown, or fair; with golden tresses or raven locks; -- and when we meet with a complete example of the qualities we admire, the bargain is soon struck.
William Hazlitt

I know a love may be revived which absence, inconstancy, or even infidelity has extinguished, but there is no returning from a dTgovt given by satiety.

Pushing away doesn't cause things to come together, all it causes is for things to be pushed away.
Shea McCullagh

Today I begin to understand what love must be, if it exists.... When we are parted, we each feel the lack of the other half of ourselves. We are incomplete like a book in two volumes of which the first has been lost. That is what I imagine love to be: incompleteness in absence.
Erich Fromm

I love thee with the breath, Smiles, tears of all my life.
Elizabeth Barrett Browning

In love, unlike most other passions, the recollection of what you have had and lost is always better than what you can hope for in the future.
Henri B. Stendhal

And then I asked him with my eyes to ask again yes and then he asked me would I yes and his heart was going like mad and yes I said yes I will yes.
James Joyce

Conversation has a kind of charm about it, an insuating and insidious something that elicits secrets from us just like love or liquor.
Lucius Annaeus Seneca

True love begins when nothing is looked for in return.
Antoine De Saint-Exupery

It is in the thirties that we want friends. In the forties we know they won't save us any more than love did.

"When you feel like falling down, don't give up. Try again."

LOVE: He to whom this emotion is a stranger, who can no longer pause to wonder and stand rapt in awe, is as good as dead: his eyes are closed. Albert Einstein (1879-1955)

Infatuation is when you think he's as sexy as Robert Redford, as smart as Henry Kissinger, as noble as Ralph Nader, as funny as Woody Allen, and as athletic as Jimmy Conners. Love is when you realize that he's as sexy as Woody Allen, as smart as Jimmy Connors, as funny as Ralph Nader, as athletic as Henry Kissinger and nothing like Robert Redford - but you'll take him anyway.
Judith Viorst

I love her and she loves me, and we hate each other with a wild hatred born of love.
August Strindberg

I regard as a mortal sin not only the lying of the senses in matters of love, but also the illusion which the senses seek to create where love is only partial. I say, I believe, that one must love with all of one's being, or else live, come what may, a life of complete chastity.
George Sand

It is difficult to know at what moment love begins; it is less difficult to know that it has begun.
Henry Wadsworth Longfellow

Love is blind. It will take over your mind. What you think is love, is truly not. You need to elevate your mind.
Eve
