Love does not die easily. It is a living thing. It thrives
in the face of all life's hazards, save one - neglect.
--James Bryden
Pains of love be sweeter far
Than any other pleasures are.
--John Dryden
I cannot love as I have loved,
And yet I know not why;
It is the one great woe of life
To feel all feeling die.
The sweetest joy, the wildest woe is love.
--Philip James Bailey
What is life, when wanting love? Night without a morning;
Love's the cloudless summer sun, Nature gay adorning.
--Robert Burns
No man, or woman, was ever cured of love by discovering the falseness
of his or her lover. The living together for three long, rainy days in
the country has done more to dispel love than all the perfidies in love
that have ever been committed.
--Arthur Helps
The greatest tragedy of life is not that men perish, but that they cease
to love.
--W. Somerset Maugham
Mysterious love, uncertain treasure,
Hast thou more of pain or pleasure!
Endless torments dwell about thee:
Yet who would live, and live without thee!
--Joseph Addison
Love is never lost. If not reciprocated, it will flow back and soften
and purify the heart.
--Washington Irving
You can't force someone to love you; all you can do is become someone
who can be loved; the rest is up the them.

Falling in love is awfully simple, but falling out of love is simply
awful.

The most painful love there is, is the love left unshown
A love that cannot be expressed, affection left unknown
The love that withholds touching, afraid of what it would say
And the most painful thing about unexpressed love is... it never fades
away
--Susan Polis Schutz
All men and women have an equal need for love. When these needs are
not fulfilled it is easy to have our feelings hurt, for which we blame
our partner.
--John Gray
Because someone doesn't love you the way you want them to doesn't mean
they don't love you with all they have.
--Unknown
Most of us are pawns in a game of love we don't understand.
--Leo Buscaglia
What we have once enjoyed we can never lose.
All that we love deeply becomes a part of us.
--Helen Keller
