Afraid To Love Quotes

“I don't feel very smart at the moment. I don't think I could just go away and not come back. I mean, all you have to do is look at me and—" "And what?" She peered upward through her lashes at him. "And I practically go to pieces, all right?" "No," he murmured roughly, closing the distance between them. "If you're going to go to pieces, I want it to be in my arms." He slipped his hands inside the robe to her waistline and pulled her against him so mat her naked breasts were crushed against his broad, muscled chest. "And I want to be kissing you."

“It often occurs that pride and selfishness are muddled with strength and independence. They are neither equal nor similar; in fact, they are polar opposites. A coward may be so cowardly that he masks his weakness with some false personification of power. He is afraid to love and to be loved because love tends to strip bare all emotional barricades.

“Do not be afraid to love. Remember dear old Don Quixote, viewing the world with love. He saw many beautiful things no one else saw. Try being dear Don Quixote for a day. You'll see that love improves your vision and allows you to see more than your eye has ever seen before. But be forewarned: Those who look on the world with love will need a handkerchief, not to use as a blindfold, but to blow their nose and dry their tears.”
