Absence from whom we love is worse than death.
-William Cowper
Quotations
Love
Love and friendship. They are what make us who we are, and what can change us, if we let them.
-Emily Giffin
"Something Blue"
Love to be real love, must be active.
-Barry Moore
There lives at least one being who can never change - one being who would be content to devote his whole existence to your happiness - who lives but in your eyes-who breathes but in your smiles, who bears the heavy burden of life itself only for you.
-Charles Dickens
A true 'lover' is the one, in whom his beloved can find not only a lover, but also a
friend, father, guru, brother, son, all of them.
-Deep Trivedi
Not only is love blind, it’s a little hard of hearing.
-Brian P. Cleary
"You Oughta Know By Now"
Do I love you because you're beautiful, or are you beautiful because I love you?
-Richard Rodgers
"Rodgers & Hammerstein's Cinderella"
You love your family, but not your neighbor. You love your parents, but not others’ parents. You love your religion, but not all religions. You love your country, but not all countries. This is not true love, it is limited love. Transformation of limited love into divine love is the goal of spirituality.
-A Spiritual Leader "Mata Amritanandamayi"
The lover flies, runs and rejoices; he is free and nothing can restrain him. He gives all for all and has all in all.
-Jesus Christ
Love watches, and sleeping, slumbers not. When fatigued it does not become tired; when pressed it does not work through constraint; when threatened it is not disturbed; but like a lively flame and a burning torch, it mounts upwards, and securely overcomes all opposition.
-Jesus Christ
