Love rules his kingdom without a sword.
ITALIAN PROVERB
Love is not a delicate toying,
A slim and shimmering mesh;
It is two souls wrenched into one,
Two bodies made one flesh.
STEPHEN VINCENT BENÉT
Young Adventure
Each moment of a happy lover's hour is worth an age of dull and common life.

'Tis better to have loved and lost than never to have loved at all.
ALFRED TENNYSON
"In Memoriam"
To have, to hold, to love and caress
Is all we can ask from above
For the road that leads to happiness
Is the road that leads to love
IRVING BERLIN
"The Road that Leads to Love"
It is always possible to bind together a considerable number of people in love, so long as there are other people left over to receive manifestations of their aggressiveness.

Civilization and Its Discontents
If you love someone but rarely make yourself available to him or her, that is not true love.

Living Buddha, Living Christ
What is love? To be delighted by the happiness of another.

We often weep beneath Love's cross,
But when she calls we her obey.
ARDELIA COTTON BARTON
"Love's Guide-Board"
O what a heaven is love! O what a hell!
THOMAS DEKKER
Blurt, Master Constable
Love ceases to be a pleasure, when it ceases to be a secret.

As love is the most noble and divine passion of the soul, so is it that to which we may justly attribute all the real satisfactions of life, and without it, man is unfinished, and unhappy.

You can't love people into who you need them to be.
JULIE MITCHELL
"Love is not written in the stars", Corsicana Daily Sun, November 6, 2017
This is the morning of our love
It's just the dawning of our love
I feel you
Your heart it sings
I feel you
The joy it brings
Where heaven waits
Those golden gates
And back again
You take me to
And lead me through oblivion
DEPECHE MODE
"I Feel You", Songs of Faith and Devotion
Some people, right away, do know each other deeply. Love gives them insight into each other. Love makes them pledge themselves to each other. Love makes them inventive. Yes, it also makes them ridiculous. But that's just another of love's glories. It makes being ridiculous permissible.
JAMES KUZNER

Only love makes fruitful the soul.
JOHN GALSWORTHY
Beyond
Love is the wild card of existence.
RITA MAE BROWN
In Her Day
Love is divine only and difficult always. If you think it is easy you are a fool. If you think it is natural you are blind. It is a learned application without reason or motive except that it is God.
TONI MORRISON
Paradise
Why does it seem to be more and more challenging to find a perfect mate or maintain a happy and compatible relationship? Was love always this difficult? Haven't we heard stories of people being truly fulfilled and happy in love? Is love a myth? There are more people on the planet than ever before, and traveling the world has never been easier. Not only that; now we can use technologies like the Internet to connect with others. So what is the problem? Why does it seem to be more complicated than ever to meet the right person and live happily ever after?
