Love…
…stirs as no other force can. It is as if the heart was first created for loving and for moving blood through the body afterward.
Little is known about the author, Robert Tizon
I would rather
have eyes that
cannot see;
ears that
cannot hear;
lips that
cannot speak,
than a heart
that cannot love.
Love…
…is in the magic of a touch that causes a sweet shutter. It is in eye contact that lights up two faces. Love is in the softness of voice one speaks to the other with. Ordinary becomes extraordinary…
American author, columnist, and political activist Orson Scott
Love shortens time,
changes the hours.
Love is invincible.
Many waters cannot
quench it
nor the floods drown.
The supreme happiness
of life is the conviction
that we are loved.
Love…
… can’t be accurately explained. There are no words that tell the depth, size and strength of what is in my heart for you. It’s as impossible as trying to accurately describe the size of the universe. So, “I love you madly” will have to do.
Quote by an unknown anonymous writer
If you love
someone,
tell him or her.
Forget
about the rules
or the fear
or looking ridiculous.
What is
truly ridiculous
is passing up
on an opportunity
to tell someone
that your heart
is invested
in him or her.
Love…
…oh, how wonderful to be in love. Everything shines a bit brighter and magic moves into what was common. One feels completely alive and life makes a little more sense. Love is the best reason we have for living.
From “The End of the World as We Know It…” by Robert Goolrick
If you
don’t
receive
love from
the ones
who are
meant to
love you,
you will
never stop
looking for it.
Love…
…is knowing someone down to their childish silliness and learning to love them for it. It’s seeing clearly what at first one wishes would change, then realizing it’s a piece of the beloved that unexpectedly makes the person all the more loveable.
American author, biographer and novelist Elizabeth M. Gilbert
To be
fully seen
by somebody,
then,
and be
loved anyhow –
this is a human
offering
that can
border
on miraculous.
Love…
…can make a walk in the woods a tenderly secret adventure known only and for always to the two who shared it. Untold to anyone else, the rapture of that afternoon remains pure and unspoiled and will until after our last breaths are drawn.
Author of “Codependent No More”, Melody Beattie
I trust
so much in
the power
of the heart
and the soul;
I know
that the answer
to what
we need
to do next is in our
own hearts.
All we have to do
is listen…
Love…
…that fills the heart leaves no room for question. Uncertainty is a construct of the mind. True love doesn’t leave space for doubt. A filled heart laughs in ridicule when questioned.
From a letter by Victor Hugo in 1821 to Adele Foucher
When two souls,
which have sought each other for,
however long in the throng,
have finally found each other…
a union, fiery and pure
as they themselves are…
begins on earth
and continues forever in heaven.
This union is love, true love…
a religion, which deifies the loved one,
whose life comes
from devotion and passion,
and for which the greatest sacrifices
are the sweetest delights.
This is the love
which you inspire in me…
Love…
…is tested by time. Like water, some evaporates over time till little to nothing remains. Then there is love that flows onward keeping its depth and fullness like a spring fed pond ever flowing fresh, strong and inviting.
From a Robert Browning letter to Elizabeth Barrett Dec. 31, 1845
…this is my first song,
my true song –
this love I bear you –
I look into my heart
and then let it go forth
under that name – love.
I am more than mistrustful
of many other feelings in me:
they are not earnest enough;
so far true enough –
but this is all the flower of my life
which you call forth
and which lies at your feet.
Love…
…shines in a person’s eyes even when it is unspoken. A stranger can tell when love is alive between two people. In the way they look at each other volumes of silent meaning are expressed.
American psychiatrist and best-selling author M. Scott Peck
Love is
as love does.
Love is
an act of will
…both an intention
and an action.
Will also
implies choice.
We do not
have to love.
We choose
to love.
Love…
…can reach through time as if a year is a day. First true loves never fade and though decades may pass the one who first found their way into a heart remains safe there: a young teenage face perfectly clear in mind; frozen in time.
American fiction writer of seven novels Elizabeth Noble
Before
we
belonged
to
anyone
else,
we
were
each
other’s.
