Love came in wounded and frantic ways to my dismaying family.
‐‐ Pat Conroy
Love can be put off, never abandoned.
‐‐ Sextus Propertius
Love can be understood only 'from the inside,' as a language can be understood only by someone who speaks it, as a world can be understood only by someone who lives in it.
‐‐ Robert C. Solomon
Love can be unselfish, in the sense of being benevolent and generous, without being selfless.
‐‐ Mortimer Adler
Love can consign us to hell or to paradise, but it always takes us somewhere.
‐‐ Paulo Coelho
Love can do much, but duty more.
‐‐ Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
Love can never be fully explained.
‐‐ P. J. O'Rourke
Love can never make you weak, and love is not restricted to opposite sex. I love my parents, I love my animals, and I love my profession.
‐‐ Randeep Hooda
Love can no more continue without a constant motion than fire can; and when once you take hope and fear away, you take from it its very life and being.
‐‐ Francois de La Rochefoucauld
Love can produce the children, but it has nothing to do with the raising of the children. I grew up thinking, 'Oh, that's it. All I have to do is fall in love.' You may think love will change everything, but it really is different with children. Children don't necessarily bring you together; they challenge you.
‐‐ Brooke Shields
Love can reach the same level of talent, and even genius, as the discovery of differential calculus.
‐‐ Lev Vygotsky
Love can sometimes be magic. But magic can sometimes... just be an illusion.
‐‐ Javan
Love cannot burn constantly.
‐‐ Pierce Brosnan
Love cannot endure indifference. It needs to be wanted. Like a lamp, it needs to be fed out of the oil of another's heart, or its flame burns low.
‐‐ Henry Ward Beecher
Love cannot express the idea of music, while music may give an idea of love.
‐‐ Hector Berlioz
Love cannot long survive without truth. Nor is truth really truth unless it is integrated with love.
‐‐ Michael O'Brien
Love cannot save you from your own fate.
‐‐ Jim Morrison
Love casts out fear, but we have to get over the fear in order to get close enough to love them.
‐‐ Dorothy Day
Love ceases to be a pleasure when it ceases to be a secret.
‐‐ Aphra Behn
Love Comes Quickly is our favourite record ever, and it did really badly.
‐‐ Chris Lowe
Love comes to everybody in many different ways. Attraction is always the first thing, no? But love must be more than that. It must be magic.
‐‐ Julio Iglesias
Love comes unseen; we only see it go.
‐‐ Henry Austin Dobson
Love comes when manipulation stops; when you think more about the other person than about his or her reactions to you. When you dare to reveal yourself fully. When you dare to be vulnerable.
‐‐ Joyce Brothers
Love commingled with hate is more powerful than love. Or hate.
‐‐ Joyce Carol Oates
Love conquers all things except poverty and toothache.
‐‐ Mae West
Love consists in desiring to give what is our own to another and feeling his delight as our own.
‐‐ Emanuel Swedenborg
Love consists in giving without getting in return; in giving what is not owed, what is not due the other. That's why true love is never based, as associations for utility or pleasure are, on a fair exchange.
‐‐ Mortimer Adler
Love consists in this, that two solitudes protect and touch and greet each other.
‐‐ Rainer Maria Rilke
Love cures people - both the ones who give it and the ones who receive it.
‐‐ Karl A. Menninger
'Love, Death and the Changing of the Seasons' is a kind of novel in verse about the arc of an urban lesbian love affair - and I suppose there is a certain amount of voyeurism in the consumption of fiction! The 'Sancerre' poems here are more contemplative and about the relationship of the individual to local and wider histories.
‐‐ Marilyn Hacker
Love demands infinitely less than friendship.
‐‐ George Jean Nathan
Love dies only when growth stops.
‐‐ Pearl S. Buck
Love does not alter the beloved, it alters itself.
‐‐ Soren Kierkegaard
Love does not begin and end the way we seem to think it does. Love is a battle, love is a war; love is a growing up.
‐‐ James A. Baldwin
Love does not claim possession, but gives freedom.
‐‐ Rabindranath Tagore
Love does not consist in gazing at each other, but in looking outward together in the same direction.
‐‐ Antoine de Saint-Exupery
Love does not dominate; it cultivates.
‐‐ Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
Love doesn't grow on trees like apples in Eden - it's something you have to make. And you must use your imagination too.
‐‐ Joyce Cary
Love doesn't just sit there, like a stone; it has to be made, like bread, remade all the time, made new.
‐‐ Ursula K. Le Guin
Love doesn't last.
‐‐ Paul Theroux
Love doesn't make the world go 'round. Love is what makes the ride worthwhile.
‐‐ Franklin P. Jones
'Love Don't Let Me Down,' which is the original title of 'Country Strong,' was just as difficult emotionally as 'Tron' was physically. I play a country singer that basically gets on tour with Gwyneth Paltrow's character, who is one of the biggest country stars out there, and she's fallen down too many times and it's an intense emotional story.
‐‐ Garrett Hedlund
Love each other or die.
‐‐ Mitch Albom
Love exercised while duty is neglected will make children headstrong, willful, perverse, selfish, and disobedient. If stern duty is left to stand alone without love to soften and win, it will have a similar result. Duty and love must be blended in order that children may be properly disciplined.
‐‐ Ellen G. White
Love. Fall in love and stay in love. Write only what you love, and love what you write. The key word is love. You have to get up in the morning and write something you love, something to live for.
‐‐ Ray Bradbury
Love feels no burden, thinks nothing of trouble, attempts what is above its strength, pleads no excuse of impossibility; for it thinks all things lawful for itself, and all things possible.
‐‐ Thomas a Kempis
Love fills and empties simultaneously. It makes us reach out to God, ready to be pruned, recklessly desiring whatever the cost. It soothes the aching heart and then makes it thirst for more.
‐‐ Mother Angelica
Love finds you. You always get smacked with love when you least expect it.
‐‐ Scott Eastwood
Love food and I love to eat.
‐‐ Salma Hayek
