QUOTES OF LOVE

I love you not only
for what you are, but for what I am when I am
with you. I love you not only for what you have made of yourself,
but for what you are making of me. I love you for the part of me that
you bring out. Elizabeth Barrett Browning (1806-1861)
You were made perfectly to be loved,
and surely I have loved you, in the
idea of you, my whole life long. -Elizabeth Barrett Browning (1806-1861)

There isn't time--so brief is life--for
bickerings, apologies,
heartburnings, callings to account. There is only time for loving,
and but an instant, so to speak, for that. -Mark Twain (1835-1910)

In our life there is a single color,
as on an artist's palette, which
provides the meaning of life and art. It is the color of love.
Marc Chagall (1887-1985)

Love is something eternal; the aspect
may change,
but not the essence. -Vincent Van Gogh (1853-1890)

Place me like a seal over your heart,
like a seal on your arm;
for love is as strong as death, its jealousy unyielding as the grave.
It burns like blazing fire, like a mighty flame.
Many waters cannot quench love; rivers cannot wash it away.
If one were to give all the wealth of his house for love,
it would be utterly scorned. - Song of Solomon 8:6-7

Love is patient, love is kind. It does
not envy, it does not boast,
it is not proud. It is not rude, it is not self-seeking.
It is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs.
Love does not delight in evil, but rejoices with the truth.
It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres.
Love never fails. -1 Corinthians 13:4-8

There is nothing nobler or more admirable
than when two people
who see eye to eye keep house as man and wife, confounding their
enemies and delighting their friends. - Homer - Odyssey

One word frees us of all the weight and
pain in life.
That word is love. -Sophocles (496-406 B.C.)

There is no more lovely, friendly and
charming relationship,
communion or company than a good marriage.
Martin Luther (1483-1546)

So dear I love him that with him, all
deaths I could endure.
Without him, live no life.
William Shakespeare (1564-1616), Romeo and Juliet

Neither a lofty degree of intelligence
nor imagination nor
both together go to the making of genius. Love, love, love,
that is the soul of genius. -Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart (1756-1791)

Have a heart that never hardens, and
a temper that never tires,
and a touch that never hurts. -Charles Dickens (1812-1870)

Grow old along with me! The best is yet
to be. The last of life,
for which the first was made. -Robert Browning (1812-1889)
