Affection is responsible for nine-tenths of whatever solid and durable happiness there is in our lives.

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

At the touch of love everyone becomes a poet.

There is no disguise which can hide love for long where it exists, or simulate it where it does not.

What love we've given, we'll have forever. What love we fail to give, will be lost for all eternity.

Gestures, in love, are incomparably more attractive, effective and valuable than words.

It is very easy to love alone.

A part of kindness consists in loving people more than they deserve.

Love is never lost. If not reciprocated, it will flow back and soften and purify the heart.

Love yourself first and everything else falls into line. You really have to love yourself to get anything done in this world.
