When I was in the military they gave me a medal for killing two men and a discharge for loving one.

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
Goodbyes are only for those who love with their eyes. Because for those who love with the heart and soul there is no such thing as separation!
-Rumi
Love and compassion are necessities, not luxuries. Without them humanity cannot survive.
-Dalai Lama
And, in the end
The love you take
is equal to the love you make.
-Paul McCartney
First lose yourself, then only you find Him. The Beloved is not separate from you; just turn your face within.
Love cannot tolerate distance and hatred cannot tolerate nearness.
-Sri Sri Ravi Shankar
Spiritually, the yellow colour is a sign of prosperity; it is the colour of love.
It is best to love wisely, no doubt: but to love foolishly is better than not to be able to love at all.
-William Thackeray
I have loved the stars too fondly to be fearful of the night.
-Sarah Williams
