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

Love is an act of endless forgiveness, a tender look which becomes a habit.

Lord, grant that I might not so much seek to be loved as to love.

The hunger for love is much more difficult to remove than the hunger for bread.

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

You can give without loving, but you can never love without giving.

Be of love a little more careful than of anything.

When we lose one we love, our bitterest tears are called forth by the memory of hours when we loved not enough.

Love is suffering. One side always loves more.

There is no friendship, no love, like that of the parent for the child.
