Love Quotes

Love can be the greatest feeling in the world, though at times it can also be the most painful. For those in the throes of a broken heart, the following love quotes may perhaps provide some guidance and inspiration, as well as the strength to move on and love once more.

Love is patient and kind; love is not jealous or boastful; it is not arrogant or rude. Love does not insist on its own way; it is not irritable or resentful; it does not rejoice at wrong, but rejoices in the right. Love bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things.
- 1 Corinthians 13:4-7

Better to have loved and lost, than to have never loved at all.

- C.J. Franks

The greatest happiness of life is the conviction that we are loved – loved for ourselves, or rather, loved in spite of ourselves.

Relationships – of all kinds – are like sand held in your hand. Held loosely, with an open hand, the sand remains where it is. The minute you close your hand and squeeze tightly to hold on, the sand trickles through your fingers. You may hold onto some of it, but most will be spilled. A relationship is like that. Held loosely, with respect and freedom for the other person, it is likely to remain intact. But hold too tightly, too possessively, and the relationship slips away and is lost.
- Kaleel Jamison

I have been astonished that men could die martyrs for their religion-
I have shudder’d at it.
I shudder no more.
I could be martyr’d for my religion
Love is my religion
And I could die for that.
I could die for you.
- John Keats

Everybody can be great because anybody can serve. You don’t have to have a college degree to serve. You don’t have to make your subject and verb agree to serve. You only need a heart full of grace. A soul generated by love.
- Martin Luther King

One heartbreak is like a thousand lessons.
Loving again is learning them.
- Sandra McKendry

There is always some madness in love. But there is also some reason in madness.
- Friedrich Nietzche

We conceal it from ourselves in vain-we must always love something. In those matters seemingly removed from love, the feeling is secretly to be found, and man cannot possibly live for a moment without it.
- Blaise Pascal

Love looks not with the eyes, but with the mind;
And therefore is winged Cupid painted blind.
- William Shakespeare

One word frees us of all the weight and pain in life.
That word is Love.

I have found the paradox that if I love until it hurts, then there is no hurt, but only more love.

Love is the essential reality and our purpose on earth. To be consciously aware of it, to experience love in ourselves and others, is the meaning of life. Meaning does not lie in things. Meaning lies in us.
- Marianne Williamson
