Quote by Eleanor Farjeon

Love... It surrounds every being and extends slowly to embrace all that shall be.

Kahlil Gibran

No, this trick won't work...How on earth are you ever going to explain in terms of chemistry and physics so important a biological phenomenon as first love?

Albert Einstein

Wicked men obey from fear; good men, from love.

Aristotle

Immature love says, "I love you because I need you." Mature love says, "I need you because I love you."

Erich Fromm

Love looks through a telescope; envy through a microscope.

Henry Wheeler Shaw

Love has its own instinct, finding the way to the heart, as the feeblest insect finds the way to its flower, with a will which nothing can dismay nor turn aside.

Honoré de Balzac

The most powerful symptom of love is a tenderness which becomes at times almost insupportable.

Victor Hugo

Love grants in a moment what toil can hardly acheive in an age.

Johann Wolfgang von Goethe

Tell me who admires and loves you, and I will tell you who you are.

Antoine De Saint-Exupery

Love begins at home, and it is not how much we do, but how much love we put in that action.

Mother Teresa

Flowers are love's truest language.

Søren Kierkegaard

The sincerest love is the love of food.

George Bernard Shaw

I believe love produces a certain flowering of the whole personality which nothing else can achieve.

Ivan Sergeevich

And love of power, is inconsistent with goodness; but quite consistent with the very opposite qualities--pride, cunning, cruelty.

Leo Tolstoy

We conceal it from ourselves in vain - we must always love something. In those matters seemingly removed from love, the feeling is secretly to be found, and man cannot possibly live for a moment without it.

Blaise Pascal

Today gives us a chance to love, to work, to play, and to look up at the stars.

Henry van Dyke

If you cry because the sun has gone out of your life, your tears will prevent you from seeing the stars.

Rabindranath Tagore

Hate leaves ugly scars; love leaves beautiful ones.

Mignon McLaughlin

Love has no better teacher than the occasion.

Miguel de Cervantes

It's time to make love, douse the glim. The fireflies twinkle and dim; The stars lean together, like birds of a feather, and the loin lies down with the limb.

Conrad Aiken
