Love can sometimes be magic. But magic can sometimes... just be an illusion.

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

Love is the joy of the good, the wonder of the wise, the amazement of the Gods.

A man is already halfway in love with any woman who listens to him.

If you have only one smile in you give it to the people you love.

If you love something let it go free. If it doesn't come back, you never had it. If it comes back, love it forever.

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

Friendship may, and often does, grow into love, but love never subsides into friendship.

I have found the paradox, that if you love until it hurts, there can be no more hurt, only more love.

If you press me to say why I loved him, I can say no more than because he was he, and I was I.
