True love cannot be found where it does not exist, nor can it be denied where it does.

Looking back, I have this to regret, that too often when I loved, I did not say so.

Each moment of a happy lover's hour is worth an age of dull and common life.

Absence diminishes mediocre passions and increases great ones, as the wind extinguishes candles and fans fires.

Love is the only sane and satisfactory answer to the problem of human existence.

The degree of loving is measured by the degree of giving.

Love is what we were born with. Fear is what we learned here.

Love one another, but make not a bond of love: Let it rather be a moving sea between the shores of your souls.

The best proof of love is trust.

At the touch of love everyone becomes a poet.
