1. "The great tragedy of life is not that men perish, but that they cease to love." ~ W. Somerset Maugham

2. "A blessed thing it is for any man or woman to have a friend, one human soul whom we can trust utterly, who knows the best and worst of us, and who loves us in spite of all our faults." ~ Charles Kingsley

3. "Woe to the man whose heart has not learned while young to hope, to love - and to put its trust in life." ~ Joseph Conrad

4. "Spread love everywhere you go: first of all in your own house. Give love to your children, to your wife or husband, to a next door neighbor... Let no one ever come to you without leaving better and happier. Be the living expression of God's kindness; kindness in your face, kindness in your eyes, kindness in your smile, kindness in your warm greeting." ~ Mother Theresa

5. "What greater thing is there for two human souls that to feel that they are joined... to strengthen each other... to be at one with each other in silent unspeakable memories." ~ George Eliot

6. "If you have love in your life it can make up for a great many things you lack. If you don't have it, no matter what else there is, it's not enough." ~ Ann Landers

7. "Free love? As if love is anything but free! Man has bought brains, but all the millions in the world have failed to buy love. Man has subdued bodies, but all the power on earth has been unable to subdue love. Man has conquered whole nations, but all his armies could not conquer love. Man has chained and fettered the spirit, but he has been utterly helpless before love. High on a throne, with all the splendor and pomp his gold can command, man is yet poor and desolate, if love passes him by. And if it stays, the poorest hovel is radiant with warmth, with life and color. Thus love has the magic power to make of a beggar a king. Yes, love is free; it can dwell in no other atmosphere." ~ Emma Goldman

8. "Falling in love consists merely in uncorking the imagination and bottling the common sense." ~ Helen Rowland

9. "Who would give a law to lovers? Love is unto itself a higher law." ~ Boethius

11. "To love abundantly is to live abundantly, and to love forever is to live forever." ~ Henry Drummond

12. "The Eskimo has fifty-two names for snow because it is important to them; there ought to be as many for love." ~ Margaret Atwood

13. "Love takes up where knowledge leaves off." ~ Saint Thomas Aquinas
