But you know the thing about romance is that people only get together right at the very end. ~ Love Actually

Kat: I’ve been spilling my guts all weekend and I don’t know anything about you.
Nick: I’m allergic to fabric softener and I majored in comparative literature at Brown. I hate anchovies and I think I’d miss you even if we’d never met.
~ The Wedding Date

Your love is deep enough for me today. ~ Eisley, “Head Against the Sky”

I love you for what you are, but I love you yet more for what you are going to be. I love you not so much for your realities as for your ideals. I pray for your desires, that they may become great, rather than your satisfactions, which may be so hazardously little. You are going toward something great. I am on the way with you and therefore, I love you. ~ Carl Sandburg

Soul mates – it’s extremely rare, but it exists. Sort of like twin souls tuned into each other. ~ What Dreams May Come

Only when I grew to love you did I understand the relativity of time. Then, I wished to embrace you forever, hoping eternity would last just a few minutes more. ~ Anthony Constantino

Honestly, if you’re not willing to sound stupid, you don’t deserve to be in love. ~ A Lot Like Love

I always thought that there was this one perfect person for everybody in the world, you know, and when you found that person, the rest of the world kind of magically faded away. And, you know, the two of you would just be inside this kind of protective bubble. But there is no bubble. I mean, if there is, you have to make it. I just think life is more than a series of moments, you know. We can make choices and we can choose to protect the people we love, and that’s what makes us who we are and those are the real moments. ~ Forces of Nature

I love you every minute. I love you more than marching bands and cookie making. ~ The Other Sister

I read once that ancient Egyptians had fifty words for sand and that the Eskimos had a hundred words for snow. I wish I had a thousand words for love, but all that comes to mind is the way you move against me when you sleep … and there are no words for that. ~ Brian Andreas

True love cannot be found where it does not truly exist, nor can it be hidden where it truly does. ~ Kissing a Fool

The only guy who deserves to have you is the one who thinks he doesn’t.

It is not only necessary to love, it is necessary to say so. ~ French Proverb

Someday, someone might come into your life and love you the way you’ve always wanted. If your someday was yesterday, learn. If your someday is tomorrow, hope. If your someday is today … cherish.

You make me melt like a Popsicle on the Fourth of July. ~ Little Rascals

I like the fact that somebody like you sees something in me. ~ One Tree Hill

Being in love is amazingly, frighteningly, beautiful.

I promise to encourage your compassion because that is what makes you unique and wonderful. I promise to nurture your dreams because through them your soul shines. I promise to help shoulder our challenges, for there is nothing we cannot face if we stand together. I promise to be your partner in all things, not possessing you but working with you as a part of the whole. Lastly, I promise to you perfect love and perfect trust, for one lifetime with you could never be enough. This is my sacred vow to you, my equal in all things.

So let’s leave all the windows open tonight, leaving us no choice but to cuddle close and cut off all the lights for a while and you can kiss me like you’ll never see me again.

There are 6,470,818,671 people in the world. Some are running scared, some are coming home. Some tell lies to make it through the day, others are just now facing the truth. Some are evil men at war with good, and some are good struggling with evil. 6 billion people in the world … 6 billion souls. And all you need is one. ~ One Tree Hill

At the touch of a lover, everyone becomes a poet. ~ Plato

Yes, losing your heart's desire is tragic ... but gaining your heart's desire? It's all you can hope for. This year I wished for love ... to immerse myself in someone else and to wake a heart long afraid to feel. My wish was granted and if having that is tragic, then give me tragedy because I wouldn't give it back for the world. ~ One Tree Hill

She is everything to me -- the unrequited dream, a song that no one sings, the unattainable. She's a myth that I have to believe in. ~ Slipknot

She's cold and she's cruel, but she knows what she's doing. She pushed me in the pool at our last school reunion. She laughs at my dreams, but I dream about her laughter. Strange as it seems, she's the one I'm after cause she's bittersweet; she knocks me off my feet. ~ The Click Five, "Just the Girl"

She's just the girl I'm looking for. ~ The Click Five, "Just the Girl"

You've always been the one who could make her stay around. ~ Chris Cagle, "Laredo"

You aren’t going to be his first, his last or his only. He’s cared about someone else before you and he will again. But if he cares for you now, what else matters? He’s not perfect, you aren’t perfect and the two of you will never be perfect. If he can make you laugh at least once, hold on to him and give him the most you can. He isn’t going to quote poetry, he’s not going to be thinking about you every moment … but he will give you a part of him that he knows you can break, so don’t hurt him. Don’t change him and don’t expect more than he can give you. Don’t overanalyze things. Smile when he makes you happy, yell when he makes you made … and miss him like crazy when he’s not there.

I want a boy who would hold my hand in line at the mall and make all the girls jealous. I want someone who would sing to me at random moments … someone who is more goofy than romantic. A boy who’d throw stuffed animals at me when I’m acting dumb, someone who’d bet me kisses that he could be at all the old playstation games … and then let me win. A guy who’d make fun of me just to hear my laugh. He’d play with my hair all the time and surprise me with 25 cent rings. Someone who I can share lollypops with and lay on a blanket to count the stars. We’d buy tons of disposable cameras to take the silliest pictures of each other and squirt water guns at each other in the house. But mostly, someone who would be my best friend and would never break my heart. He would just always make me smile.

I want a brave love, one that makes me weak in the knees. I want a crazy, crazy love. One that makes me come undone at the seams. ~ Jewel

But some emotions don’t make a lot of noise. It’s hard to hear pride. Caring is real faint – like a heart beat. And pure love … why some days it’s so quiet, you don’t even know it’s there.

She’s a yellow pair of running shoes, a holey pair of jeans. She looks great in cheap sunglasses, she looks great in anything. She’s, “I want a piece of chocolate cake; take me to a movie.” She’s a, “I can’t find a thing to wear.” Now and then she’s moody. She’s a Saturn with a sunroof with her brown hair blowing. She’s a warm conversation I wouldn’t miss for nothing. She’s a fighter when she’s mad and she’s a lover when she’s lovin’. ~ Brad Paisley

I know this may be redundant, but I think it bears repeating. I think I’ve found my better half – I swear I’ve found my better half. ~ The Spill Canvas

I come here with no expectations only to profess, now that I am at liberty to do so, that my heart is and always will be yours. ~ Sense and Sensibility

The way you fit into my arms at night – I’ll remember that feeling for the rest of my life. ~ Plain White T’s

I wanna be the surgeon that cuts you open and fixes all of life’s mistakes; I wanna be the house that you were raised in, the only place that you feel safe; I wanna be your shower in the morning that wakes you up and makes you clean. ~ Bright Eyes, “Ship in a Bottle”

There’s nothing in the world like being young and in love. It gives you the power to do things you would never have had the courage to do otherwise. It inspires you to make yourself vulnerable, put your heart on the line. To give more than you can give. To speak heart-felt sentiments you thought only existed in old books and flowery poetry. And it can make you forget everything except love itself. That one thing that makes life worth living, the object of your affection. Inspired by love, we can move mountains, make great changes, do great things. But we can also become so blinded by it that we forget everything … everyone … even ourselves. ~ Everwood
