If you wished to be loved, love.

We love but once, for once only are we perfectly equipped for loving.

Love is but the discovery of ourselves in others, and the delight in the recognition.

It is very easy to love alone.

All happiness or unhappiness solely depends upon the quality of the object to which we are attached by love.

Life without love is like a tree without blossoms or fruit.

Three grand essentials to happiness in this life are something to do, something to love, and something to hope for.

Immature love says: 'I love you because I need you.' Mature love says 'I need you because I love you.'

To love for the sake of being loved is human, but to love for the sake of loving is angelic.

I was born with an enormous need for affection, and a terrible need to give it.
