Love means giving one's self to another person fully, not just physically. When two people really love each other, this helps them to stay alive and grow. One must really be loved to grow. Love's such a precious and fragile thing that when it comes we have to hold on tightly. And when it comes we're very lucky because for some it never comes at all. If you have love, you're wealthy in a way that can never be measured. Cherish it.
--Nancy Reagan

And high and low mate ill;
But love has never known a law
Beyond its own sweet will.

For still in mutual sufferance lies
The secret of true living;
Love scarce is love that never knows
The sweetness of forgiving.
--John Greenleaf Whittier
If thou must love me, let it be for naught
Except for love's sake only.

Love seeketh not itself to please,
Nor for itself hath any care,
But for another gives its ease,
And builds a Heaven in Hell's despair.

The best portion of a man's life: his little nameless, unremembered acts of kindness and of love.
--William Wordsworth
You've been in love; you know what it's like. It's a sense of delight, not just in the person you love, but in all people, in yourself, in life. Suddenly you see beauty, excitement everywhere. You're not afraid to express your love: passionately, gently, in words, or in silence. And you feel strong, generous, fully alive.
--George Weinberg
We are all born for love. It is the principle of existence, and its only end.

One word frees us of all the weight and pain of life: that word is love.
--Sophocles
...and we ourselves shall be loved for a while and forgotten. But the love will have been enough; all those impulses of love return to the love that made them. Even memory is not necessary for love. There is a land of the living and a land of the dead, and the bridge is love, the only survival, the only meaning.

Love is the magician, the enchanter, that changes worthless things to joy, and makes right-royal kings and queens of common clay.

--R. G. Ingersoll
Youth's for an hour
Beauty's a flower
But love is the jewel
that wins the world.

To melt and be like a running brook
that sings its melody to the night.
To wake at dawn with a winged heart
and give thanks for another day of loving.

Two things cannot alter,
Since Time was, nor today:
The flowing of water;
And Love's strange, sweet way.
--Japanese Lyric
Love is patient and kind. Love is not jealous or boastful or proud or rude. Love does not demand its own way. Love is not irritable, and it keeps no record of when it has been wronged. It is never glad about injustice but rejoices whenever the truth wins out. Love never gives up, never loses faith, is always hopeful, and endures through every circumstance.
--Corinthians 13:4-7
Holy Bible (New Living Translation)

2. Anonymous

To love is to suffer. To avoid suffering one must not love. But then one suffers from not loving. Therefore to love is to suffer, not to love is to suffer. To suffer is to suffer. To be happy is to love. To be happy then is to suffer. But suffering makes one unhappy. Therefore, to be unhappy one must love, or love to suffer, or suffer from too much happiness. I hope you're getting this down.
8. Agatha Christie
An archeologist is the best husband any woman can have; the older she gets, the more interested he is in her.
9. Albert Einstein
Gravitation can not be held responsible for people falling in love.
10. Melanie Clark
You can't put a price tag on love, but you can on all its accessories.
Love is patient, love is kind.
It does not envy, it does not boast,
it is not proud.
It is not rude, it is not self-seeking.
It is not easily angered,
it keeps no record of wrongs.
Love does not delight in evil,
but rejoices with the truth.
It always protects, always trusts,
always hopes, always perseveres.
Love never fails.
Bible
~I Corinthians 13:4-8~
"Perfect love is rare indeed -
for to be a lover will require
that you continually have
the subtlety of the very wise,
the flexibility of the child,
the sensitivity of the artist,
the understanding of the philosopher,
the acceptance of the saint,
the tolerance of the scholar and
the fortitude of the certain."
~Leo Buscaglia~
There is no difficulty that enough love will not conquer;
no disease that enough love will not heal;
no door that enough love will not open;
no gulf that enough love will not bridge;
no wall that enough love will not throw down;
no sin that enough love will not redeem...
It makes no difference how deeply seated may be the trouble;
how hopeless the outlook; how muddled the tangle; how great the mistake.
A sufficient realization of love will dissolve it all.
If only you could love enough you would be
the happiest and most powerful being in the world...
~Emmet Fox~

you can never tell."

In watching and pursuing
The light that lies
In women's eyes
Has been my heart's undoing.

too swift for those who fear,
too long for those who grieve,
too short for those who rejoice,
but for those who love, time is eternity.
~Henry Van Dyke~
Dance Me ~ Leonard Cohen
" I seem to have loved you in numberless forms, numberless times,

it is only with the heart that one can see rightly,
what is essential is invisible to the eye.

THROUGH LOVE all that is bitter will be sweet
Through Love all that is copper will be gold.
Through Love all dregs will turn to purest wine
Through Love all pain will turn to medicine.
Through Love the dead will all become alive.
Through Love the king will turn into a slave!
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Passion makes the old medicine new:
Passion lops off the bough of weariness.
Passion is the elixir that renews:
how can there be weariness
when passion is present?
Oh, don't sigh heavily from fatigue:
seek passion, seek passion, seek passion!
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The intellectual is always showing off,
the lover is always getting lost.
The intellectual runs away.
afraid of drowning;
the whole business of love
is to drown in the sea.
Intellectuals plan their repose;
lovers are ashamed to rest.
The lover is always alone.
even surrounded by people;
like water and oil, he remains apart.
The man who goes to the trouble
of giving advice to a lover
get nothing. He's mocked by passion.
Love is like musk. It attracts attention.
Love is a tree, and the lovers are its shade.
~Jalaluddin Rumi~
it may not always be so; and I say
that if your lips,which I have loved, should
touch another's, and your dear strong fingers clutch
his heart, as mine in time not far away;
if on another's face your sweet hair lay
in such a silence as I know, or such
great writhing words as, uttering overmuch,
stand helplessly before the spirit at bay;
if this should be, i say if this should be-
you of my heart, send me a little word;
that I may go unto him, and take his hands,
saying, Accept all happiness from me.
Then shall I turn my face, and hear one bird
sing terribly afar in the lost lands.
unlove's the heavenless hell and homeless home
...lovers alone wear sunlight.

Existence=Sex & Passion
Glistening moonlight caresses the dewed silk petals
of a lusciousblood red rose, yearning to be experienced,
her sweet lusty fragrance uninhibited and irresistible.
Explosive fiery passion bursts from the belly of our
powerful undulating sun gripping our fertile mother
with a gentle intimate embrace, seeding, warming, feeding, breathing.
Chaotic fluctuating spasms of energy pop in and out
of observable space/time, penetrating our linear version of experience
from the unlimited, teasing reality, appeasing subjectivism, achieving bliss.
From floral ecstasy to planetary intercourse,
atomic sodomy to parallel universal foreplay,
life is sex... passion, orgasm and creation.

the wait
It seemed
like years
before
I picked
a bouquet
of kisses
off her mouth
and put them
into a dawn-colored vase
in
my
heart.
But
the wait
was worth it.
Because
I
was
in love.

to which we are all heir because we are individuals,
can participate in a relationship that, for the moment,
is not of two isolated selves but a union

One Perfect Rose
A single flow'r he sent me, since we met.
All tenderly his messenger he chose;
Deep-hearted, pure, with scented dew still wet-
One perfect rose.
I knew the language of the floweret;
"My fragile leaves," it said, "his heart enclose."
Love long has taken for his amulet
One perfect rose.
Why is it no one ever sent me yet
One perfect limousine, do you suppose?
Ah no, it's always just my luck to get
One perfect rose.
"Love is like quicksilver in the hand.
Leave the fingers open and it stays.
Clutch it, and it darts away."

To My Valentine
Let's take a vacation
From the sordid ramifications
On the television Station.
I`ll treat you royal
My passions boil.
We'll be mysterious.
I yearn delirious!
I`ll make good food to eat.
And for dessert
A special treat.
Loving Kisses,
Hot and Sweet.
We'll play awhile and smile.
~Nicole~
