Love Sayings
There is always some madness in love. But there is also always some reason in madness.
Friedrich NietzscheLove 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 LeeLife has taught us that love does not consist of gazing at each other, but in looking together in the same direction.
Antoine de Saint-ExuperyEven in the common affairs of life, in love, friendship, and marriage, how little security have we when we trust our happiness in the hands of others!
William HazlittI believe love is primarily a choice and only sometimes a feeling. If you want to feel love, choose to love and be patient.
Real Live PreacherLove is an exploding cigar we willingly smoke.
Lynda BarryWe don't always get to choose what we love.
Scott WesterfeldTo fear love is to fear life, and those who fear life are already three parts dead.
Bertrand RussellLove is a friendship set to music.
Joseph CampbellFriendship often ends in love; but love in friendship - never.
Charles Caleb ColtonWe can only learn to love by loving.
Iris MurdochSonnet 132: Thine eyes I love, and they, as pitying me
Thine eyes I love, and they, as pitying me,
Knowing thy heart torment me with disdain,
Have put on black, and loving mourners be,
Looking with pretty ruth upon my pain.
And truly not the morning sun of heaven
Better becomes the grey cheeks of the east,
Nor that full star that ushers in the even
Doth half that glory to the sober west
As those two mourning eyes become thy face.
O, let it then as well beseem thy heart
To mourn for me since mourning doth thee grace,
And suit thy pity like in every part.
Then will I swear beauty herself is black,
And all they foul that thy complexion lack.
Fall not in love, therefore; it will stick to your face.
National LampoonMen always want to be a womans first love - women like to be a mans last romance.
Oscar WildeThe supreme happiness of life is the conviction that one is loved; loved for oneself, or better yet, loved despite oneself.
Victor HugoWhen you have seen as much of life as I have, you will not underestimate the power of obsessive love.
J. K. RowlingI almost think it is the ultimate destiny of science to exterminate the human race.
Thomas Love PeacockTo love is to receive a glimpse of heaven.
Karen SundeThere is no remedy for love but to love more.
Henry David ThoreauLove is not enough. It must be the foundation, the cornerstone - but not the complete structure. It is much too pliable, too yielding.
Bette Davis
