Quote by Miguel de Cervantes

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

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

Hate leaves ugly scars; love leaves beautiful ones.

Mignon McLaughlin

When you come right down to it, the secret of having it all is loving it all.

Love is a better teacher than duty.

If a person loves only one other person and is indifferent to all others, his love is not love but a symbiotic attachment, or an enlarged egotism.

Erich Fromm
