Love's a fire that needs renewal
Of fresh beauty for its fuel.

THOMAS CAMPBELL

Freedom and Love


Love is a process -- not a static condition. It's a commitment to do the work and come back into relationship with each other. To move through whatever gets in the way of your love for one another.

You can run from love
And if it's really love it will find you
Catch you by the heel

Love makes you do stupid things -- like making someone an omelet for no good reason other than to see them smile. Gross.

"6 Reasons Being In Love Is The Absolute Worst", Huffington Post, February 12, 2016


Love is woman's eternal spring and man's eternal fall. It is a game at which men must play against stacked cards, and without the slightest inkling of the trump.

HELEN ROWLAND

Inter-Collegiate World


Love is a volcano, the crater of which no wise man will approach too nearly, lest ... he should be swallowed up.

CHARLES CALEB COLTON

Lacon

Charles Caleb Colton (1777 - 1832) was an English cleric and writer. His books, including collections of epigrammatic aphorisms and short essays on conduct, though now almost forgotten, had a phenomenal popularity in their day.


The capacity to love is the fruit of age, not the monopoly of youth.

SIMON MAY

Love: A History


Among all the many kinds of first love, that which begins in childish companionship is the strongest and most enduring: when passion comes to unite its force to long affection, love is at its spring-tide.

GEORGE ELIOT

Mr. Gilfil's Love Story


I think love is serious. It's like an invention: sometimes it lies deep down inside you, great and quiet--and at other times it racks you and keeps you from sleeping.

WILLIAM JOHN LOCKE

Septimus


Love is like a good piece of wood: It just gets stronger and stronger as the years go by.

It was as though our love were a small creature caught in a trap and bleeding to death: I had to shut my eyes and wring its neck.

GRAHAM GREENE

The End of the Affair


I swallowed hard. Was I ready for the Wager of Love? It was still a gamble and there would be no guarantee of happiness, but I would not remain one of the Cowards of Love scattered around me. I knew that one could not be the Empire's greatest lover without truly knowing how to love. And yet I no longer even aspired to this hollow title. I wanted only what every common husband can achieve--to be the greatest lover of my very own wife.

Love is the secret you unmask yourself to find; it is the foundation of the spiritual life, the destination where all roads of the journey lead.

Love is a quality which mocks at death, which overlaps it, feeds on it, is nourished by it, and finds its roots deep down in that part of us which is both immortal and Divine.

ARTHUR FOLEY WINNINGTON-INGRAM

Thoughts on Love and Death


In the end what will prevail is your passion not your tale, for love is the Holy Grail.

TOM ROBBINS

Villa Incognito

Tom Robbins (born July 22, 1932) is an American novelist best known for his novel Even Cowgirls Get the Blues, which was made into a movie in 1993 starring Uma Thurman, Lorraine Bracco, and Keanu Reeves.


I am a lover and have not found my thing to love. That is a big point if you know enough to realize what I mean. It makes my destruction inevitable, you see. There are few who understand that.

SHERWOOD ANDERSON

"Tandy", Winesburg, Ohio


This love of ours, in so far as it is a love for one particular creature, is not perhaps a very real thing, since, though associations of pleasant or painful musings can attach it for a time to a woman to the extent of making us believe that it has been inspired by her in a logically necessary way, if on the other hand we detach ourselves deliberately or unconsciously from those associations, this love, as though it were in fact spontaneous and sprang from ourselves alone, will revive in order to bestow itself on another woman.

MARCEL PROUST

Within a Budding Grove


Now, girls, if you want to observe a young man hustle out after a pick and shovel, just tell him that your heart is in some other fellow's grave. Young men are grave-robbers by nature.

O. HENRY

"The Count and the Wedding Guest"

Love is enough: though the World be a-waning,
And the woods have no voice but the voice of complaining,
Though the sky be too dark for dim eyes to discover
The gold-cups and daisies fair blooming thereunder,
Though the hills be held shadows, and the sea a dark wonder
And this day draw a veil over all deeds pass'd over,
Yet their hands shall not tremble, their feet shall not falter;
The void shall not weary, the fear shall not alter
These lips and these eyes of the loved and the lover.
