Writing is like prostitution. First you do it for love, and then for a few close friends, and then for money.

Moliere

People react to fear, not love - they don't teach that in Sunday School, but it's true.

Leonardo da Vinci

The wise are wise only because they love. The fool are fools only because they think they can understand love.

Philosophy, rightly defined, is simply the love of wisdom.

Coming generations will learn equality from poverty, and love from woes.

Kahlil Gibran

In love, at one of its poles you find the personal, at the other the impersonal. At one you have the positive assertion - Here I am; at the other the equally strong denial - I am not. Without this ego what is love? And again, with only this ego how can love be possible?

Friendship is constant in all other things, Save in the office and affairs of love.

Love 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 Lee

Love at first sight? I absolutely believe in it! You've got to keep the faith. Who doesn't like the idea that you could see someone tomorrow and she could be the love of your life? It's very romantic.

Leonardo DiCaprio

Love is two minds without a single thought.

Philip Barry

I want to give you some love, I want to give you some good good lovin'

Bob Marley

I firmly believe that if you follow a path that interests you, not to the exclusion of love, sensitivity, and cooperation with others, but with the strength of conviction that you can move others by your own efforts, and do not make success or failure the criteria by which you live, the chances are you'll be a person worthy of your own respect.
