Quotations
Love
If you have only one smile in you, give it to the people you love.
-Maya Angelou
It is better to be hated for what you are than to be loved for what you are not.
-André Gide
"Autumn Leaves"
We are never so defenseless against suffering as when we love.
-Sigmund Freud
Love is the irresistible desire to be irresistibly desired.
-Mark Twain
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
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"
I want to be in a relationship where you telling me you love me is just a ceremonious validation of what you already show me.
-Steve Maraboli
"Life, the Truth, and Being Free"
You can as easily love without trusting as you can hug without embracing.
-Robert Brault
When there is Love, there is no ego; ego dissolves like the dew drops with the sun.
-Sri Sri Ravi Shankar
