Define Love Quotes

“Love is the only sane and satisfactory answer to the problem of human existence.”

“I did some more soul searching. I asked myself, "What do I want more than happiness?" and there was only one answer - the only thing that trumps happiness is love. Not the kind of love we are normally taught about, but the kind of unconditional love that is a deep inner state which doesn't depend on any person, situation or a romantic partner. That's how I define Love for No Reason: it's an inner state of love.”

“We waste time looking for the perfect lover, instead of creating the perfect love.”

“You can give without loving, but you can never love without giving.”

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

“Love looks not with the eyes, but with the mind, And therefore is winged Cupid painted blind.”

“Love is when the other person's happiness is more important than your own.”

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

“I define love thus: The will to extend one's self for the purpose of nurturing one's own or another's spiritual growth.”

“I would define love very simply: as a potent blend of openness and warmth, which allows us to make real contact, to take delight in and appreciate, and to be at one with--our selves, others, and life itself. Openness--the heart's pure, unconditional yes--is love's essence. And warmth is love's basic expression, arising as a natural extension of this yes--the desire to reach out and touch, connect with, and nourish what we love.”

“Discipline, it has been suggested, is the means of human spiritual evolution. What provides the motive, the energy for discipline? This force I believe to be love. I define love thus: The will to extend one's self for the purpose of nurturing one's own or another's spiritual growth.”

“Returning hate for hate multiplies hate, adding deeper darkness to a night already devoid of stars. Darkness cannot drive out darkness; only light can do that. Hate cannot drive out hate; only love can do that.”
