The love we give away is the only love we keep. ~ Elbert Hubbard

Love is love. Teenagers are capable of being love as adults are, perhaps more so. ~ Kimberly Kirberger

The moment he saw her, something inside him knelt down. ~ Toni Morrison

I love you for the man you are, I love you for the things you do, I love you for the things you say. But most of all I love you because you love me for the woman I am, for things I do and for the things I say. I love you. ~ Magnolias

His life within her and her life within his, each lives as individuals, yet they also live for one another. ~ Stephen T. Fader

There are so many things I want to say to you, but time’s caught me up and now I’ll never say them – except that I’ve loved you from the moment I saw you and every moment since. ~ Robin Hood

Put your head against my life
What do you hear
A million words just trying to make
The love song of the year
Close your eyes but don’t forget
What you have heard
A man who’s trying to say three words
The words that make me scared
A million loves songs later
And here I am trying to tell you that I care
A million love songs later
And here I am
~ Gary Barlow, "A Million Love Songs"

I apologize if I never told you what you were in my eyes. ~ Faith Hill

Every time the time was right
All the words just came out wrong
So I’ll have to say I love you in a song
Yeah I know it’s kinda late
Hope I didn’t wake you
But there’s something I just gotta say
I know you’d understand
Every time I tried to tell you
The words just came out wrong
So I’ll have to say I love you in a song
~ Jim Croce, "I'll Have to Say I Love You in a Song"

You’re so precious to me, I don’t even think you realize how much. It’s like that blanket or teddy bear everyone has when they’re little – never able to be parted with, always the most important thing, and love more than anything else in the world. That’s what you are to me, and you always will be … forever.

I’m just saying, you can’t know who that person is … the person who will become your ultimate confidant, your soul mate, or your lover. He may be someone you’ve had your eye on for years, or he might be that guy standing next to you in torn jeans buying some part for his car. Whoever it is, he starts off as a stranger, so it could be anyone. ~ Felicity

I’m not a man to throw words to the wind, when I said I loved you that’s what I meant. And I plan to show you if it takes me the rest of my life. ~ Blessed Union of Souls

An immature love says, “I love you because I need you.” A mature love says, “I need you because I love you.”

If I could be an angel, I’d make your every wish come true, but I am only human … just a girl who’s loving you.

All the best love stories have one thing in common. You have to go against the odds to get there. ~ Party of Five

She had been a fool – a fool to believe she could talk herself out of being in love with him. A fool to think that reason had anything to do with the heart. ~ Less of a Stranger by Nora Roberts

Caring for someone is the easiest thing in the world if you let it be. ~ Less of a Stranger by Nora Roberts

When people ask me what I see in you, I don’t know what to tell them. Because honestly, I don’t know. But when I look into your eyes, I see magic and it just makes me want to lose myself in your arms.

What is the sign that a person really loves you? It's not the things he gives you like flowers or kisses. It's the things he doesn't give you, like tears in your eyes and pain in your heart.

Anyone who has ever loved could look at me and know that I love you. Anyone who has ever dreamed would look at me and know that I dream of you.

Every man is afraid of something. That’s how you know if he loves you … if he’s afraid to lose you.

It’s not in the way you say my name, it’s not the way you smile. It’s not the way you act the same, it’s not the way you laugh for a while. It’s not in the words you say to me. ~ DMX

From the moment we met many years ago, we both knew in our hearts that we were meant for each other. Our love is true and will last, for we are soulmates, best friends and lovers.

Off into the world we go, planning futures, shaping years. Love bursts in and suddenly, all our wisdom disappears. Love makes fools of everyone. All the rules we make are broken. Yes, love … love changes everyone. Live or perish in its flame. Nothing in the world could ever be the same.

I may not be a smart man, but I know what love is. ~ Forest Gump

Why is it that men choose to walk away from love while women just stand there and let it ruin their life?

You don’t get to choose, you just fall in love. And you get this person who’s all wrong and all right at the same time. And it just works. ~ Party of Five

Love endures only when the lovers love many things together, and not merely each other.

Till that day you came along, my heart was empty like the soul was missing form a song. And I thought I’d loved a few, no one ever made me feel the way that you do. ~ Unwritten Law

Go for the guy that makes you feel like you are more important to him than the air in his lungs and the stars in his sky; the guy who makes you feel on top of the world is the one who will keep you there.

Once in a while, right in the middle of an ordinary life, love gives us a fairy tale.

Suddenly, quietly, you realize that … from this moment forth … you will no longer pass through this world alone. Like a new sun, this awareness rises within you, freeing you from fear, opening your life. This is the beginning of love and the end of all that came before.

Sometimes you meet someone and before you even know their name, before you know where they’re from, you know that sometime in the future this person is going to mean something to you.

Anyone who can conquer her heart can conquer the world.

I need you and anything less than you complete enveloping my entire life wouldn’t be good enough for me. I need you and I don’t want to be with anyone else … just you.

The greatest gift in life is to be loved. But when you’re loved by someone you love … your happiness is endless.

You know you've met your soul mate when you constantly think the same thoughts and finish each other's sentences. It's a wonderful feeling.

Just when you think that nothing is going to make your day better, you turn the corner and see him waiting for you with a big smile on his face. ~ Sandra Jennings

The best part of love is losing all sense of reality. ~ Don Juan de Marco

No matter how painful your past love life is, be brave and smile. Look forward to tomorrow … someone is out there waiting for you.

I have faith that could make mountains fall
But if I don’t have love, I don’t have anything at all.
I can give up everything I possess,
If I’m without love, I am without happiness.

I knew he was going to turn my world upside down. My brain warned me, but my heart didn’t want to take its advice.

I don’t know why I love you; I just know that this is what I’ve waited for my whole life.
