Love Quotations Quotes

“Love is my favorite drug; I overdose on it regularly.”

“Women are the best thieves you will ever meet; they steal your heart and your last name, but never get to spend the night in jail.”

“Be calm on your wedding day; she won’t kill you in front of a hundred people, no matter what you've done.”

“Elena has shown me that intimacy is not about the elimination of solitude—it is about the transformation of solitude from something defensive into something generative.”

“A sword can only pierce the body, but love can pierce the soul.”

“When you hear love calling you, don’t pretend to be deaf.”

“Love does these three things effectively: multiplies joy, divides trouble, subtracts grief, and adds peace.”

“If you want to be strong, exercise; if you want to be wise, study; if you want to be happy, smile; and if you want to be invincible, love.”

“Perhaps all love affairs are nothing more than the projections of hopeful hearts looking for soft lodging in a world that would have them be hard. Perhaps. Perhaps love is always just this; the suspension of disbelief and the fierce welcoming of a shared and altered reality. Is not the impossible always made possible by love? The ridiculous transformed to serious? What was once only a stuff of dreams made real? If we are willing to allow it or admit it, are we not all altered by our loving?”

“This is the way of lovers, isn’t it - to overqualify their experience? Who, in the midst of rush and longing, thinks, well, this love is mundane, inconsequential, and utterly unoriginal? No. To those in the midst of falling, all love is great love. It would be insulting to suggest otherwise. But still, at the risk of appearing biased or overly sentimental, might I suggest that even in the truth of this, some loves are different. And this was one of them. It is commonly accepted that a love affair is only made great by time and history and by its discovery and retelling at a time long after the love has ended, by death or leaving. Hearts broken by distance or cruelty or the ultimate fallibility of the human heart. We believe that the greatness of a love affair can only be defined and named in retrospect—after it has been documented, proven, recognized by many. But normal rules of love do not apply here, because this was not an ordinary love.”

“Women never stalk men; they just research them intensely.”
