Between a man and his wife nothing ought to rule but love. Authority is for children and servants, yet not without sweetness.
William Penn
Love cures people - both the ones who give it and the ones who receive it.
Anonymous
If I take my whole, passionate, spiritual and physical love to the woman who in return loves me, that is how I serve God. And my hymn and my game of joy is my work.
D.H. Lawrence
Life has taught us that love does not consist of gazing at each other, but in looking together in the same direction.
Antoine de Saint-Exupery
Love is the exchange of two fantasies and the contact of two skins.
Chamfort
Love is the only element that really illuminates the darkenss.
Antonio Gala
We cannot really love anybody with whom we never laugh.
Agnes Repplier
Love is not primarily a relationship to a specific person; it is an attitude, an orientation of character which determines the relatedness of a person to the world as a whole, not towards one 'object' of love.
Erich Fromm
Love gives beauty to everything it touches. Not greed and utility; they produce offices, but not dwelling houses. To be able to love material things, to clothe them with tender grace, and yet not be attached to them, this is a great service. Providence expects that we should make this world our own, and not live in it as though it were a rented tenement. We can only make it our own through some service, and that service is to lend it love and beauty from our soul. Your own experience shows you the difference between the beautiful, the tender, the hospitable, and the mechanically neat and monotonously useful.
Rabindranath Tagore
It is natural for the mind to believe and for the will to love; so that, for want of true objects, they must attach themselves to false.
Blaise Pascal
We are all born for love...it is the principle existence and its only end.
Benjamin Disraeli
I am in love - and, my God, it's the greatest thing that can happen to a man. I tell you, find a woman you can fall in love with. Do it. Let yourself fall in love, if you haven't done so already. You are wasting your life.
D.H. Lawrence
Truth is so obscure in these times, and falsehood so established, that, unless we love the truth, we cannot know it.
Blaise Pascal
Love is a portion of the soul itself, and it is of the same nature as the celestial breathing of the atmosphere of paradise.
Victor Hugo
Two kinds of persons know Him: those who have a humble heart, and who love lowliness, whatever kind of intellect they may have, high or low; and those who have sufficient understanding to see the truth, whatever opposition they may have to it.
Blaise Pascal
I've got more than one membership to more than one club and I owe my life to the people that I love.
Ani Difranco
Love is the irresistible desire to be irresistibly desired.
Robert Frost
