There is more hunger for love and appreciation in this world than for bread.
~ Mother Teresa
Love cannot endure indifference. It needs to be wanted. Like a lamp, it needs to be fed out of the oil of another's heart, or its flame burns low.
~ Henry Ward Beecher
You will find as you look back upon your life that the moments when you have really lived, are the moments when you have done things in a spirit of love.
~ Henry Drummond
Treasure the love you receive above all.
It will survive long after your good health has vanished.
~ Og Mandino
The person who tries to live alone will not succeed as a human being. His heart withers if it does not answer another heart. His mind shrinks away if he hears only the echoes of his own thoughts and finds no other inspiration.
~ Pearl S. Buck
Love works in miracles every day: such as weakening the strong, and stretching the weak; making fools of the wise, and wise men of fools; favouring the passions, destroying reason, and in a word, turning everything topsy-turvy.
~ Marguerite De Valois
All love that has not friendship for its base,
is like a mansion built upon the sand.
~ Ella Wheeler Wilcox
Love is the emblem of eternity: it confounds all notion of time:
effaces all memory of a beginning, all fear of an end.
~ Germaine De Stael
Love is the history of a woman's life; it is an episode in man's.
~ Germaine De Stael
The loving are the daring.
~ Bayard Taylor
Loneliness and the feeling of being unwanted is the most terrible.
~ Mother Teresa
The only gift is a portion of thyself.
~ Ralph Waldo Emerson
The best portion of a good man's life,
His little, nameless, unremembered acts,
Of kindness and of love.
~ William Wordsworth
Grow old along with me, the best is yet to be.
~ Robert Browning
Love is a thing, well, its kind of like quicksand:
The more you are in it, the deeper you sink.
And when it hits you, you've just got to fall.
~ UB40
Love is the expansion of two natures in such fashion
that each include the other,
each is enriched by the other.
~ Felix Adler
