The greatest weakness of most humans is their hesitancy to tell others how much they love them while they're still alive. Orlando A Batista If it is your time, love will track you down like a cruise missile. Lynda Barry However it is debased or misinterpreted, love is a redemptive feature. To focus on one individual so that their desires become superior to yours is a very cleansing experience. Jeanette Winterson Sex alleviates tension. Love causes it Woody Allen Women wish to be loved not because they are pretty, or good, or well bred, or graceful, or intelligent, but because they are themselves. Henri Frederic Ameil Love's greatest gift is its ability to make everything it touches sacred. Barbara De Angelis Love is a force more formidable than any other.

St Augustine Not all of us have to possess earthshaking talent. Just common sense and love will do.

Locks may lose their brown and gold. Cheeks may fade and hollow grow. But the hearts that love will know, never winter's frost and chill, summer's warmth is in them still.

Benjamin Disraeli The pain of love is the pain of being alive. It is a perpetual wound. Maureen Duffy Loving people live in a loving world. Hostile people live in a hostile world. Same world. Wayne Dyer He who is in love is wise and is becoming wiser, sees newly every time he looks at the object beloved, drawing from it with his eyes and his mind those virtues which it possesses.
