When you are around someone so much, for so long, they become a part of you, and when they change or go away, you don't know who you are without them.
Sarah Headley
Fear? What is there to fear about love? Love is the very reason to live. To fear love is to lose all sense of living, and if we cannot love, then shy have we been put here? Fearing love is like being afraid of breathing. It's not something to be scared of. It's something no one can resist.
from "A Heartbeat Away"
Companionship, partnership, mutual reassurance, someone to laugh with and grieve with, loyalty that accepts foibles, someone to touch, someone to hold your hand -- these things are marriage and sex is the icing on the cake.
Heinlein
When he kisses you he isn't doing anything else. You're his whole universe. . . and the moment is eternal because he doesn't have any plans and isn't going anywhere.
Robert Heinlein
At the first kiss I felt something melt inside me that hurt in an exquisite way. All my longings, all my dreams and sweet anguish, all the secrets that slept deep within me came awake, everything was transformed and enchanted, everything made sense.
Herman Hesse
Love is a choice - not simply , or necessarily a rational choice, but rather a willingness to be present without pretense or guilt.
Carter Heyward
Cinderella said to Snow White,"How did love get so off course? All wanted was a White Knight with a good heart, soft touch, fast horse."
Faith Hill
When you bed someone, there is always a committment. Sometimes that committment is only that you will pretend that it doesn't matter. . . Sometimes that committment is made only to yourself. The other party never knows it or agrees to it.
Amber -"Mad Ship" Robin Hobb
The heart is wiser than the intellect.
J. G. Holland
The greatest happiness in life is the conviction that we are loved - loved for ourselves, or rather, inspite of ourselves.
Victor Hugo
Nothing is more true, more real, than the primeval magnetic disturbances that two souls may communicate to one another, though the tiny sparks of a moment's glance.
Victor Hugo
Love makes your soul crawl out from its hiding place.
Zora N. Hurston
Love is the magician, the enchanter, that changes worthless things to joy, and makes right and royal kings and queens of common clay. It is the perfume of that wondrous flower, the heart, and without that sacred passion, that divine swoon, we are less than beasts; but with it, earth is heaven and we are gods.
Robert G Ingersoll
A child does not have to be taught how to be happy or the ways of love. It is fear, hatred, and prejudice that have to be taught. And from the condition of the world we can see that unfortunately these are some good teachers.
Javan
Never let a problem to be solved become more important too you than a person to be loved.
Barbara Johnson
Sex is a two-way treat.
Franklin P. Jones
Do you want me to tell you something really submissive? Love is all it's cracked up to be. That's why people are so cynical about it. . .It really is worth fighting for, being brave for, risking everything for. And the trouble is: if you don't risk everything, you risk everything.
Erica Jong
I do not want to make reasons for you to stay, only for you to return.

John Keets
It is better to break one's heart than to do nothing with it.
Margaret Kennedy
Love is kind of funny that way. Kind of like a cat, really. It'll ignore your efforts to coax and cajole it, then jump straight into your lap the moment you try to do anything non-cat related.
Andy Ketterling
To cheat one's self out of love is the greatest deception of which there is no separation in either time or eternity.
Soren Kierkegaard
What is important to a relationship is a harmony of emotional roles and not too great a dispairity in the general level of intelligence.

Lamartine

There is no disguise which can hide love for long where it exists, or simulate it where it does not.
La Rouchefoucauld

Ferdinand LaSalle
Sex and beauty are inseparable, like life and consciousness.
D. H. Lawrence
Love is the flower of life, and blossoms unexpectedly and without law, and must be plucked where it is found, and enjoyed for the brief hour of it's duration.
D. H. Lawrence
Love doesn't just sit there, like a stone, it has to be made, like bread, remade all the time, made new.
Ursala Le Guin
Love is like a lost article. It shows up when and where you least expect it.
Sarah Le Jeune
Intimate relationships cannot substitute for a life plan. But to have any meaning or viability at all, a life plan must include intimate realationships.
Harriet Lerner
Few people dare now to say that two beings have fallen in love because they have looked at each other. Yet it is in this way that love begins and in this way only.
"Les Mis"
Go to the truth behind the mind. Love is the bridge.
Stephen Levine
Affection is responsable for nine-tenths of whatever solid and durable happiness there is in our lives.
C. S. Lewis
I came alive when I started loving you.
C. S. Lewis
Never, never pin your whole faith on any human being, not if he is the wisest in the whole world. There are lots of nice things you can do with sand, but do not try building a house on it.
C. S. Lewis
Love endures only when the lovers have many things together and not merely each other.
Walter Lippmann
Love gives of itself; it is not bought.
H. W. Longfellow
In the recognition of loving lies the answer to despair.

The decision to kiss for the first time is the most crucial in any love story. It changes the relationship of two people much more strongly than the final surrender, because this kiss already has within in that surrender.
Emil Ludwig
We should all be so lucky to have someone who will never let us go. The ultimate legacy is to leave behind someone who will love you forever.
Ally McBeal
We all want love to come along, but we place all these restrictions on how it should come along.

You can lead a man by his penis, but it's the wrong way to tame him.
Ally McBeal
The world is no longer a romantic place. Some of its people still are, however, and therein lies the promise.
Ally McBeal
There is nothing lonlier than being with the wrong guy.
Ally McBeal
I think I need to believe it works. . .love, couplehood, partnerships. The idea that when people come together, they stay together. I have to take that with me when I go to bed at night -even if I'm going to bed alone. That's a McBealism.
Ally
McBeal
Whoever said that there are plenty of fish in the sea was lying, there's only one fish. Trust me.
Ally McBeal
You are so important to my days - and so esential to the smile within me. That certain space where our lives overlap is the place that brings me the most understnding, the most peace, the nicest memories. . .

Sarah McLachlan
The heart is a lonely hunter that hunts on a lonely hill.
Fiona Macleod
[Love] has never cared about my schedule. It just barges in whenever it wants.
Miriam Makela
Such a cultivated mind doesn't really attract me. . .No, no, the mind I love must still have wild places, a tangled orchard where dark demons drop in the heavy grass, an overgrown little wood, the chance of a snake or two (real snakes), a pool that nobody's fathomed the depth of - and paths threaded with those little flowers planted by the mind.
Katherine Mansfield
We don't love qualities; we love a person; sometimes by reason of their defects as well as their qualities.
