Quotations for Valentine's Day

Author: Roger Heywood Published: 1st February 2010 09:44

pictureLove is composed of a single soul inhabiting two bodies.
- Aristotle


Being deeply loved by someone gives you strength, while loving someone deeply gives you courage.
- Lao Tzu

 

My bounty is as boundless as the sea,
My love as deep; the more I give to thee,
The more I have, for both are infinite.
- William Shakespeare, Romeo and Juliet

 

How do I love thee? Let me count the ways.
- Elizabeth Barrett Browning

 

Young love is a flame; very pretty, often very hot and fierce, but still only light and flickering. The love of the older and disciplined heart is as coals, deep-burning, unquenchable.
- Henry Ward Beecher

 

Age does not protect you from love. But love, to some extent, protects you from age.
- Anais Nin

 

Life has taught us that love does not consist in gazing at each other but in looking outward in the same direction.
- Antoine de Saint-Exupery

 

Love has no desire but to fulfill itself.
But if you love and must needs have desires, let these be your desires;
To melt and be like a running brook that sings its melody to the night.
To know the pain of too much tenderness.
To be wounded by your own understanding of love;
And to bleed willingly and joyfully.
- Kahlil Gibran, The Prophet

 

The best and most beautiful things in the world cannot be seen or even touched. They must be felt with the heart.
-Helen Keller

 

Love does not dominate; it cultivates.
- Johann Wolfgang von Goethe



Love is life. All, everything that I understand, I understand only because I love. Everything is, everything exists, only because I love.
- Leo Tolstoy

 

Love is like quicksilver in the hand. Leave the fingers open and it stays. Clutch it, and it darts away.
- Dorothy Parker

 

I have learned not to worry about love; but to honor its coming with all my heart.
- Alice Walker

 

I love you without knowing how, or when, or from where.
I love you straightforwardly, without complexities or pride;
so I love you because I know no other way
than this: where I does not exist nor you,
so close that your hand on my chest is my hand,
so close that your eyes close as I fall asleep.
- Pablo Neruda, "Love Sonnet XVII"
