When you fall in love, it is a temporary madness. It erupts like an earthquake and then it subsides. And when it subsides, you have to make a decision. You have to work out whether your roots have become so entwined together that it is inconceivable that you should ever part because this is what love is. Love is not breathlessness, it is not excitement, it is not the desire to mate every second of the day. It is not lying awake at night imagining that he is kissing every part of your body. No – don’t blush, I am telling you some truths. For that is just being in love, which any of us can convince ourselves we are. Love itself is what is left over when being in love has burned away. ~ Captain Corelli’s Mandolin

A love so real even after you’re dead, it hurts. That’s what I want. ~ Must Love Dogs

I have an ulcer, I don’t sleep well – mostly because you keep calling me in the middle of the night and if you don’t call me, I dream that you’re gonna call me. I think about you in the shower … not in a good way, but in an “I’m so distracted I can’t remember if I washed my hair” kinda way – so I’ll wash my hair twice! ~ Two Weeks Notice

And it wasn’t till that very moment I held you in my arms that I realized that where I am is exactly where I am supposed to be.

I know you may roll your arms at this, but I’m so glad you exist. ~ Fall Out Boy

And you’re a little more than amazing.

I think about your face and how I fall into your eyes. The outline that I trace around the one that I call mine. ~ Trapt

And sometimes I wear his sweatshirt even though I’m not cold.

I know we’re good together. You’re the only person I can be myself with even if I don’t know who the hell that is. ~ Rumor Has It

And he did something to me that I can’t quite explain only with words – he took me to a new place, he introduced me to myself.

But we understand each other and we care about each other and I believe that years from now, we still will.

Love isn’t material, it’s energy. It’s the feeling in a room, a situation, a person. Money can’t guy it, sex doesn’t guarantee it. It has nothing at all to do with the physical world, but it can be expressed nonetheless. We experience it as kindness, giving, mercy, compassion, peace, joy, acceptance, non-judgment, joining and intimacy. ~ A Return to Love by Marianne Williamson

A girl likes to be crossed with love every now and then; it gives her something to think about. ~ Pride and Prejudice

Clementine: You know me, I’m impulsive.
Joel: That’s what I love about you.
~ Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind

I want to be like those girls in the movies and have a man so in love with me it makes him drop to his knees.

We all want to fall in love. Why? Because that experience makes us feel completely alive. Where every sense is heightened, every emotion magnified, our every day reality is shattered and we are flying into the heavens. It may only last a moment, an hour, an afternoon … but that doesn’t diminish its value. Because we are left with memories that we treasure for the rest of our lives.

To be able to say how much you love is to love but little. ~ Petarch

Sometimes we’ll be piled on the couch wearing sweats, eating the kind of ice cream we like, watching our favorite TV show, talking in the shorthand way we talk that nobody understands, and I’ll realize that this every day, simple, no-big-deal moment … this is my happiness.

You teach me love in subtle lessons but you are the student if you do not understand that a day will never dawn when you are not on my mind. Night will never see a midnight hour with you not in my dreams. No other will ever be allowed into my heart and I’ll never love again if it isn’t with you. ~ Matthew White

I’m glowing everywhere … my toes, my heart. You can’t see it – it’s on the inside. ~ Roswell

We’ve all been down the dusty road trying to see around the bend in search of something. Lots of different places, emptiness had settled in and then I saw him. ~ Jessica Simpson, “My Way Home”

And I knew exactly how old Walt Disney’s Cinderella felt when she found her prince. ~ A Promising Man, And About Time, Too by Elizabeth Young

This is the first day of my life. I’m glad I didn’t die before I met you, but now I don’t care. I could go anywhere with you and I’ll probably be happy. ~ Bright Eyes

I’m looking for real love: ridiculous, inconvenient, consuming, can’t live without each other love.

It was my turn to decide. I knew this was our time. No one else will ever have me like you do … no one else will have me. Only you. ~ Jimmy Eat World

And there’s just something about you that makes me look again.

I could die just staring in your eyes, I just wanna feel your heartbeat. ~ Plain White T’s

Thought I had never instantly loved a face more and I also felt that I wanted to live in his bed next to him. ~ Like the Red Panda

You’re one of the many things that make me face the day; I’m so glad you’re here with me. ~ The Starting Line

You know I could’ve held you in my arms forever and it still wouldn’t have been long enough. ~ One Tree Hill

You know, when it works, love is pretty amazing. It’s not overrated. There’s a reason for all those songs. ~ Sarah Dessen

Everything that’s good in me, I owe to you. ~ Backstreet Boys

The moment you have love in your heart, this extraordinary thing called love, and feel the depth … the delight … the ecstasy of it … you will discover that for you, the world is transformed. ~ J. Krishnamutri

It’s the way you make me laugh when I didn’t even want to smile.

I could conquer the world with one hand, just as long as you were holding my other one.

I’ve made the most important discovery of my life. It’s only in the mysterious equation of love that any logical reasons can be found. I’m only here tonight because of you. You’re the only reason I am … you are the reason I am. ~ A Beautiful Mind

This could be the very minute I'm aware I'm alive. ~ Snow Patrol

I wanna be the girl who makes your bad days better; the one that makes you say, "My life has changed since I met her."

He’s gorgeous, but gorgeous is an understatement. More like you’re startled every time you see him because you notice something new in a “Where’s Waldo?” sort of way. More like you can’t stop writing third grade run on sentences because you can’t even remotely begin to describe something … someone … so inherently amazing. More like you’re afraid that if you stare at him too long, you’ll prove your parents right that yes, your face will get stuck that way … but you don’t mind.

Here we are today. You look so beautiful, I wonder what you dream. So graceful in what you say – it’s all I need to hear your voice every day. I wish never to wake up from this dream I’m in right now. ~ The Early November

I want to be the smile, the first thought, the long drive or short walk, the last voice, the random call, the laugh, the perfect kiss, the comfort hug, your second half, the sparkle in your eye, the everything you need, just want you want. I want to be your perfection.

Sunshine, you're the best I ever, ever had. ~ Matchbox 20
