I loved her as the sun loves the flower: ever-present, nourishingly, and gently.

One of the hardest things in life to realize is that the person you love could never love you like you love them.

Love is: Bringing a blanket when someone's asleep. Giving the last piece of food to the other person. Staying awake to listen to them when you are dead tired. Hugging them tightly when they need it the most.

When speaking of love, and suffering a broken heart, the student said, 'You can't drown if you vow to never swim again.' To which the master replied, 'You will also never choke if you don't eat.'

I don't love her because she's beautiful I love her and she's beautiful.

She showed him something no one else had ever shown him that it was possible to love someone more than himself that another's suffering could bring him more agony than his own that someone's life could come before his that's what she showed him.

There are only two noble pursuits in life: knowledge and love.

In love swallow your pride but never your dignity.

Unless it's a soul-nourishing and breath-taking love, the kind that makes you wonder how you got along without them before you met them and makes you be a better, happier person, it is a waste of time. If the person cannot make you smile simply by thinking of them, they're not the one.

In love, be willing to fight for them, but never compete.

The best people to love are the ones that you don't have to try to love.

Love is not about chasing someone it's not about being chased or being the one chasing. It's about chasing after dreams and if in that pursuit someone runs parallel to you, that is love.

They showed each other that it was alright for their hearts to come out and play that it was alright to feel close to someone that love didn't always end in heartbreak.

True love is not giving power to the other person, but instead is empowering you to make that person happy.

Imagine what the world could be if we were on the offense with love instead of on the defense with hate.
