Since February is the month of romance, thought it would be fun to look up some quotes regarding love:
• “Love life and life will love you back. Love people and they will love you back.”
~ Arthur Rubinstein
• “Love is a temporary madness. It erupts like an earthquake and then subsides. And when it subsides you have to make a decision. You have to work out whether your roots have become so entwined together that it is inconceivable that you should ever part. Because this is what love is. Love is not breathlessness, it is not excitement, it is not the promulgation of promises of eternal passion. That is just being “in love” which any of us can convince ourselves we are. Love itself is what is left over when being in love has burned away, and this is both an art and a fortunate accident. Your mother and I had it, we had roots that grew towards each other underground, and when all the pretty blossom had fallen from our branches we found that we were one tree and not two.” ~ St. Augustine
• “Life without love is like a tree without blossoms or fruit.”
• “Don’t say you love me unless you really mean it, because I might do something crazy like believe it.” ~ Crush
• “If you love somebody, set them free. If they return, they were always yours. If they don’t, they never were.”
• “Friendship often ends in love; but love in friendship – never.”
• “Love has nothing to do with what you are expecting to get, it’s what you are expected to give — which is everything.”
• “Love builds bridges where there are none.”
• “Love can sometimes be magic. But magic can sometimes…just be an illusion.”
• “Love is the condition in which the happiness of another person is essential to your own.”
• “Love is like the sun coming out of the clouds and warming your soul.”
• “Life without love is like a tree without fruit.”
• “Age does not protect you from love, but love to some extent protects you from age.”
• “The greatest thing you’ll ever learn is just to love and be loved in return.”
• “Only love lets us see normal things In an extraordinary way.”
• “There’s always room for love; You just have to move a few things around.”
• “If you judge people, you have no time to love them.”
• “Love sought is good, but given unsought, is better.” ~ Shakespeare
• “It is impossible to love and be wise.” ~ Francis Bacon
