Love is what we’re born with. Fear is what we learned here.

Until we have seen someone’s darkness, we don’t really know who they are. Until we have forgiven someone’s darkness , we don’t really know what love is.

My heart must be bigger than my brain – blocking it out of all my decisions, so that I cannot think past the way I feel.

Tonight, once more, life sinks its teeth into my heart.

You first.’ The only way love works.

Love is real, love is pure, you only take what you give and give what you take. At its purest it is real. No pretending.

Relish love in your old age! Aged love is like aged wine; it becomes more satisfying, more refreshing, more valuable, more appreciated and more intoxicating!

The perfect love affair is one which is conducted entirely by post.

Sorry that I can’t believe that anybody ever really starts to fall in love with me.

Who, being loved, is poor?

I have simply found a way of loving through whatever absences or dejections have fallen like tree branches in my path.

Men make love more intensely at 20, but make love better, however, at 30.

Women should serve men. Men should serve women. Any house of peace is full of servants.

If your love is not as strong as a tidal wave, I will not be moved.

You know you’re in love when you can’t fall asleep because reality is finally better than your dreams.

We may tell ourselves that love is not really available. But the deeper truth is that we don’t entirely trust it, and therefore have a hard time fully opening to it or letting it all the way into us. This disconnects us from our own heart, exacerbating our sense of love’s scarcity.

A man in love is like a clipped coupon – it’s time to cash in!
