Quotations
Love
Our first and last love is – self love.
-Christian Nestell Bovee
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"
A life without love is like a sunless garden when the flowers are dead. The consciousness of loving and being loved brings a warmth and richness to life that nothing else can bring.
-Oscar Wilde "Oscar Wilde"
There is no remedy for love but to love more.
-Henry David Thoreau
First love is only a little foolishness and a lot of curiosity.
-George Bernard Shaw
To love and win is the best thing. To love and lose, the next best.
-William Thackeray
When I was in the military they gave me a medal for killing two men and a discharge for loving one.
-Leonard Matlovich "Epitaph of Leonard. P. Matlovich, 1988"
The blossom of love will make the air fragrant; the river of love will murmur along the valleys; and every bird, beast and child will sing the song of love.
-Vedas "Atharva Veda"
We are never so defenseless against suffering as when we love.
-Sigmund Freud
