And Love Quotes

“Where there is love there is life.”

“If you love somebody, let them go, for if they return, they were always yours. And if they don't, they never were.”

“I'm not sure there can be loving without commitment, although commitment takes all kinds of forms, and there can be commitment for the moment as well as commitment for all time. The kind that is essential for loving marriages - and love affairs, as well - is a commitment to preserving the essential quality of your partner's soul, adding to them as a person rather than taking away.”

“We loved with a love that was more than love.”

“For one human being to love another; that is perhaps the most difficult of all our tasks, the ultimate, the last test and proof, the work for which all other work is but preparation.”

“Love does not consist in gazing at each other, but in looking outward together in the same direction.”

“They do not love that do not show their love.”

“'Tis better to have loved and lost than never to have loved at all.”

“I have found the paradox, that if you love until it hurts, there can be no more hurt, only more love.”

“All, everything that I understand, I understand only because I love.”

“Love is an act of endless forgiveness, a tender look which becomes a habit.”

“That best portion of a man's life, his little, nameless, unremembered acts of kindness and love.”

“We accept the love we think we deserve.”

“Love is that condition in which the happiness of another person is essential to your own.”

“I love you without knowing how, or when, or from where. I love you simply, without problems or pride: I love you in this way because I do not know any other way of loving but this, in which there is no I or you, so intimate that your hand upon my chest is my hand, so intimate that when I fall asleep your eyes close.”

“There are two basic motivating forces: fear and love. When we are afraid, we pull back from life. When we are in love, we open to all that life has to offer with passion, excitement, and acceptance. We need to learn to love ourselves first, in all our glory and our imperfections. If we cannot love ourselves, we cannot fully open to our ability to love others or our potential to create. Evolution and all hopes for a better world rest in the fearlessness and open-hearted vision of people who embrace life.”

“What can you do to promote world peace? Go home and love your family.”

“Love is a promise, love is a souvenir, once given never forgotten, never let it disappear.”

“Lovers don't finally meet somewhere. They're in each other all along.”

“We’re all a little weird. And life is a little weird. And when we find someone whose weirdness is compatible with ours, we join up with them and fall into mutually satisfying weirdness — and call it love — true love.”

“Love is life. And if you miss love, you miss life.”

“Being deeply loved by someone gives you strength, while loving someone deeply gives you courage.”

“But I am all for love, and I am against marriage, particularly the arranged kind, because the arranged marriage gives you satisfaction. And love? - love can never satisfy you. It gives you more and more thirst for a better and better love, it makes you more and more long for it, it gives you tremendous discontentment. And that discontent is the beginning of the search for God. When love fails many times, you start looking for a new kind of lover, a new kind of love, a new quality of love. That love affair is prayer, meditation, sannyas.”

“Love, and love as deeply as possible. And if love itself becomes the marriage, that is another thing, altogether different. If love itself becomes such an intimacy that it is unbreakable, that is another thing, that is not a legal sanction. Legal sanctions are needed only because you are afraid. You know that your love is not enough; you need the legal support for it. You know perfectly well that you can escape or the woman can escape, hence you need the policeman to keep you together. But this is ugly, to need a policeman to keep you together. That's what marriage is!”

“To find someone who will love you for no reason, and to shower that person with reasons, that is the ultimate happiness.”

“I believe in love. I believe in hard times and love winning. I believe marriage is hard. I believe people make mistakes. I believe people can want two things at once. I believe people are selfish and generous at the same time. I believe very few people want to hurt others. I believe that you can be surprised by life. I believe in happy endings.”
