Love Quotes
-
When I have learned to love God better than my earthly dearest, I shall love my earthly dearest better than I do now.
C. S. Lewis
-
Love moderately; long love doth so; too swift arrives as tardy as too slow.
William Shakespeare
-
Real love, no matter how unworthy the object, is a glorious adventure. It bursts the shackles of selfishness. One's world is bigger, broader; one's sympathies are amazingly more tender. No matter what the result, if you haven't really loved, you haven't really lived.
Emilie Loring

Jane Austen
-
Love isn't relevant once things are really bad. They say love makes the world go round – but it doesn't, you know. Love is a luxury, and you indulge in it when things are OK. As soon as they are bad – really bad – there just isn't a place for it anymore-no place where there could be room for it.
Celia Fremlin

Love is a combination of admiration, respect, and passion. If you have one of those going, that's par for the course. If you have two, you aren't quite world class but you're close. If you have all three, then you don't need to die; you're already in heaven.
William Wharton

Speaking with kindness creates confidence, thinking with kindness creates profoundness, giving with kindness creates love.
Lao Tzu

Could we but think with the intensity we love with, we might do great things.
Philip James Bailey

The Eucharist is that love which surpasses all loves in Heaven and on earth.
Bernard of Clairvaux
-
Birds that love high trees and winds and riding flailing branches hate ledges as gripless and narrow, so that a tail is not just no advantage but ridiculous, mashed vertical against the wall. You will have seen the way a bird who falls on skimpy places lifts into the air again in seconds – a gift denied the rest of us when our portion isn't generous.
Kay Ryan
