Love…
…felt familiar from the moment I began to fall for you. It didn’t feel like a new spark, but rather a dormant one I had always carried. A sleeping ember was only waiting for your breath to awakened it and set a fire in my heart.
First non-European to win Literature Nobel Prize Rabindranath Tagore
I seem to have
loved you in
numberless
forms,
numberless
times,
in life after
life, in age
after age
forever.

Love…
…has changed all my perceptions. With my eyes I see more beauty. With my nose I smell more delights. Hearing your voice soothes me. Speaking your name rouses my heart. I have yet to be able to intelligently describe the taste of your lips.
Irish novelist, short-story writer and poet George Moore
The hours I spend with you
I look upon as sort
of a perfumed garden,
a dim twilight,
and a fountain
singing to it.
You and you alone
make me feel
that I am alive.
Other men it is said
have seen angels,
but I have seen thee
and thou art enough.

Love…
…is most lasting when served with equal measures of courage and understanding; courage to face the difficulties that will try to tear the lovers apart; understanding so those times don’t succeed.
Italian poet, journalist, novelist and composer Arrigo Boito
When
I
saw
you
I fell
in
love.
And
you
smiled
because
you
knew.

Love…
… is the practice of a quick kiss in parting, a hug each time after being apart and or holding hands most all the time walking together. Many repeats of small expressions of affection keep love strong and thriving.
President of the nonprofit Institute of HeartMath Sara Paddison
You’ll discover
that real love
is millions
of miles
past falling
in love
with anyone
or anything.
When you
make that one
effort to feel
compassion
instead
of blame
or self-blame,
the heart
opens again
and continues
opening.

Love…
…causes me to see you in my own special way. You are beautiful and special like sun and rain at the same time; like day and night all at once; simultaneous contentment and adventure without boundaries.
Irish Poet and Nobel Prize winner William Butler Yeats
True love is
a discipline
in which
each divines
the secret self
of the other
and refuses
to believe
in the mere
daily self.

The Heart Speaks
Love…
…brings a particular vocabulary of words used for little other purpose. They are are expressed in a soft, gentle tone used at no time except speaking to one’s beloved. The heart articulates feelings in a way the mind can never do by itself.
From “Brushstrokes of a Gadfly” by E. A. Bucchianeri
Sweetheart, darling, dearest,
it was funny to think that
these endearments,
which used to sound
exceedingly sentimental
in movies and books,
now held great importance,
simple but true verbal affirmations
of how they felt for each other.
They were words only the heart
could hear and understand,
words that could impart
entire pentameter sonnets
in their few, short syllables.

Love…
…frequently does not allow a person to know when and where it really began. It accumulates like water filling a lake behind a damn. Then one day it starts to spill over, for good or naught.
American writer and philosopher Richard Bach
True
love
stories
never
have
endings.

Love…
…changes every person it touches. Whether for a long time or only for a little while, knowing love takes the soul to a new place it can never completely return from.
Swiss psychotherapist and psychiatrist Carl Gustav Jung
The meeting
of two
personalities
is like
the contact
of two chemical
substances:
if there is
any reaction,
both are
transformed.

Love…
…looks past most imperfection and focuses away from fault. The mind does the opposite. So, I don’t think about you much and choose instead to just feel you in my heart. There you are near perfect.
French poet, novelist, and dramatist Victor Hugo
The greatest
happiness
of life
is the
conviction
that we
are loved,
loved for
ourselves,
or rather
loved
in spite
of ourselves.

Love…
…cares nothing about boundaries that countries claim or the politics of nations. Though the words to express it are different, the power of love is the same in every tongue. It is the universal language.
Old Hindu proverb from the Indian subcontinent
Love
heeds
not caste,
nor sleep
a broken
bed.
I went
in search
of love
and
lost
myself
instead.
