Aristotle

Love Is Composed Of A Single Soul Inhabiting Two Bodies


Lao Tzu

Being Deeply Loved By Someone Gives You Strength

While Loving Someone Deeply Gives You Courage


Helen Keller

The Best And Most Beautiful Things In The World

Cannot Be Seen Or Even Touched

They Must Be Felt With The Heart


Alice Walker

I Have Learned Not To Worry About Love

But To Honor Its Coming With All My Heart


Leo Tolstoy

Love Is Life

All, Everything That I Understand

I Understand Only Because I Love

Everything Is Everything Exists

Only Because I Love


Pablo Neruda, "Love Sonnet XVII"

I Love You Without Knowing How

Or When Or From Where

I Love You Straightforwardly

Without Complexities Or Pride

So I Love You Because I Know No Other Way

Than This Where I Does Not Exist Nor You

So Close That Your Hand On My Chest Is My Hand

So Close That Your Eyes Close As I Fall Asleep


Kahlil Gibran, The Prophet

Love Has No Desire But To Fulfill Itself

But If You 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


Johann Wolfgang von Goethe

Love Does Not Dominate It Cultivates


Henry Ward Beecher

Young Love Is A Frame Very Pretty

Often Very Hot And Fierce But

Still Only Light And Flickering

The Love Of The Older And

Disciplined Heart Is As Coals

Deep-Burning Unquenchable


Anais Nin

Age Does Not Protect You From Love

But Love To Some Extent Protects You From Age


Antoine de Saint-Exupery

Life Has Taught Us That Love Does Not

Consist In Gazing At Each Other

But In Looking Outward In The Same Direction


Zora Neale Hurston

Love Makes Your Soul Crawl Out

From Its Hiding Place


Dorothy Parker

Love Is Like Quicksilver In The Hand

Leave The Fingers Open And It Stays

Clutch It And It Darts Away


William Shakespeare, Romeo and Juliet

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


Elizabeth Barrett Browning

How Do I Love Thee?

Let Me Count The Ways
