About Love

Romantic love is an illusion. Most of us discover this truth after we are married, or at the end of a love affair. All love shifts and changes. No one can be wholeheartedly in love all the time. True love requires comitment, faith, trust and loyalty, not chocolate, flowers and expensive gifts.

You come to love not by finding the perfect person - because there is no such thing as a 'perfect person', but by seeing an imperfect person perfectly. You don’t love someone because they’re perfect, you love them in spite of the fact that they’re not.

Gradually or suddenly, they fall out of love. Once again they are two separate individuals. At this point they begin either to dissolve the ties of their relationship or to initiate the work of real loving. - M. Scott Peck

If you think love makes you happy, you've either never been in love, or never been in love long enough to have to start compromising. - Laurel K. Hamilton

The magic of first love is our ignorance that it can never end. - Benjamin Disraeli

The course of true love never did run smooth. - William Shakespeare

We waste time looking for the perfect lover, instead of creating the perfect love. - Tom Robbins

We all suffer from the preoccupation that there exists in the loved one, perfection. - Sidney Poitier

The roads of life are strewn with the wreckage of run-down and half-finished loves. - Ralph W. Sockman

We cannot reason ourselves into love, nor can we reason ourselves out of it, which suggests that love and reason have little to do with each other. - Christian Nestell Bovee

It is easy to love people in memory; the hard thing is to love them when they are there in front of you. - John Updike

You can give without loving, but you cannot love without giving. - Amy Carmichael

Sensuality often hastens the growth of love so much that the roots remain weak and are easily torn up. - Friedrich Nietzschie

Love for those too easily won does not last long. - Roman Proverb
