Love is not about what you want. It's about finding happiness for the one you love.

Terrence Malick

There are two ways through life: the way of Nature, and the way of Grace. You have to choose which one you'll follow. Grace doesn't try to please itself. Accepts being slighted, forgotten, disliked. Accepts insults and injuries. Nature only wants to please itself. Get others to please it too. Likes to lord it over them. To have its own way. It finds reasons to be unhappy when all the world is shining around it. And love is smiling through all things.

Tennessee Williams

The name of a person you love is more than language.

Teddy Sears

I love improving, I love being creative and I love being my own boss.

Richard Rohr

Francois Mauriac

Human love is often but the encounter of two weaknesses.

Paulo Coelho

Love is, after all, a curse of suffering.

Mortimer Adler

Freud's view is that all love is sexual in its origin or its basis. Even those loves which do not appear to be sexual or erotic have a sexual root or core. They are all sublimations of the sexual instinct.

Mortimer Adler

We love even when our love is not requited.

Peyton Manning

I love being coached. I get angry when I'm not coached. I ask a lot of questions and certainly appreciate any insight and feedback. I think if you ever stop listening to coaching or stop asking questions, you probably need to be doing something else.

Lisa Kleypas

The question, love, is whether you want me enough to take the risk.

Lisa Kleypas

Slowly his resistance ebbed. She felt the change in his body, the relaxing of tension, his shoulders curving around her as if he could draw her into himself. Murmuring her name, he brought her hand to his face and nuzzled ardently into her palm, his lips brushing the warm circlet of her gold wedding band. “My love is upon you,” he whispered…and she knew then that she had won.

Johnny Depp

Love is one of the hardest words to say and one of the easiest to hear.

Johnny Depp

Love is not blind; it simply enables one to see things others fail to see.

Neale Donald Walsch

Perfect love is to feeling what perfect white is to color. Many think that white is the absence of color. It is not. It is the inclusion of all color. White is every other color that exists, combined. So, too, is love not the absence of an emotion (hatred, anger, lust, jealousy, covetousness), but the summation of all feeling. It is the sum total. The aggregate amount. The everything.

Neale Donald Walsch

Love is freedom. The freedom to express the most joyous part of Who You Are. The part that knows that you are One with everything and everyone.

Milan Kundera

Milan Kundera

Milan Kundera

At the end of true love is death, and only the love that ends in death is love.

Milan Kundera

Love is the longing for the half of ourselves we have lost.

Milan Kundera

Tereza knew what happens during the moment love is born: the woman cannot resist the voice calling forth her terrified soul; the man cannot resist the woman whose soul thus responds to his voice.

Milan Kundera

The psychological and physiological mechanism of love is so complex that at a certain period in his life a young man must concentrate all his energy on coming to grips with it, and in this way he misses the actual content of the love: the woman he loves. (In this he is much like a young violinist who cannot concentrate on the emotional content of a piece until the technique required to play it comes automatically.)

Milan Kundera

We all reject out of hand the idea that the love of our life may be something light or weightless; we presume our love is what must be, that without it our life would no longer be the same; we feel that Beethoven himself, gloomy and awe-inspiring, is playing the “Es muss sein!” to our own great love.

Milan Kundera

Metaphors are dangerous. Love begins with a metaphor

Milan Kundera

Through the air floated only important words, and Flajsman said to himself that love has but one true measure, and that is death. At the end of true love is death, and only the love that ends in death is love.

Milan Kundera

There are things that can be accomplished only by violence. Physical love is unthinkable without violence.
