To be brave is to love someone unconditionally, without expecting anything in return. To just give, that takes courage because we don't want to fall on our faces or leave ourselves open to hurt.
-Madonna
Quotations
Love
People will ask me: Don’t you believe in God? No, I don’t. I believe in two things above all: Nature and Love. Nature is all-powerful. Love is how I understand the good. It might have been nice to believe in God, often defined as all-powerful and good, but combining the two like that has always posed too much of a contradiction for my poor mind to believe in.
-C. George Boeree "C. George Boeree"
Love is possible only step by step. If one loves himself, then only can he love
people around him and only if he loves people around him, can he fall in love
with the entire mankind... But some people directly fall in love with stones and
animals. Difficult to understand, as to who are they trying to deceive?
-Deep Trivedi
What we have once enjoyed we can never lose. All that we love deeply becomes a part of us.
-Helen Keller
That's what real love amounts to - letting a person be what he really is.
-Jim Morrison
You can experience love, but you cannot describe it or express it totally.
-Sri Sri Ravi Shankar
We look forward to the time when the Power of Love will replace the Love of Power. Then will our world know the blessings of peace.
-William Ewart Gladstone "William. E. Gladstone"
Love feels no burden, values no labours, would like to do more than it can do, without excusing itself with impossibility, because it believes that it may and can do all things.
-Jesus Christ
The most painful thing is losing yourself in the process of loving someone too much, and forgetting that you are special too.
-Ernest Hemingway
"Men Without Women"
Why are old lovers able to become friends? Two reasons. They never truly loved each other, or they love each other still.
-Whitney Otto
