LOVE is what makes two people sit in the
middle of a bench when there is plenty of room at both ends. [unknown]
(14 Feb 2011 – LOVE can be as complicated as anything you could possibly
imagine, with millions of definitions, flavors, depths, textures, lengths,
sizes, temperatures, volumes, and silences.
ON THE OTHER HAND, it can be as SIMPLE as three little words – I LOVE
YOU! HAPPY VALENTINE DAY!! X-O-X-O-X-O
{X=kiss, O=hug} Dorothy Hazel Tarr)

WHAT is YOUR definition of LOVE?
WHAT does LOVE look like? Feel like?
WHEN does LOVE begin? End?
WHERE does LOVE live?
WHY does LOVE lift the spirit, WHILE
drowning the heart?
DO you have a saying that fits your
LOVE?
Below are some LOVE quotes that may
reveal or inspire!

WHAT
IS LOVE?
A description of love from the movie Captain
Corelli's Mandolin:
"Love is a temporary madness.
It erupts like an earthquake and then subsides. And when it subsides, you have to make a
decision. You have to work out whether
your roots have become so entwined together that it is inconceivable that you
should ever part. Because this is what
love is. Love is not breathlessness, it
is not excitement, and it is not the promulgation of promises of eternal
passion. That is just being "in
love" which any of us can convince ourselves we are. Love itself is what is left over when being
in love has burned away, and this is both an art and a fortunate accident. Your mother and I had it, we had roots that
grew towards each other underground, and when all the pretty blossoms had
fallen from our branches we found that we were one tree and not two." [~St.
Augustine]
“For it was
not into my ear you whispered, but into my heart. It was not my lips you kissed, but my soul.” [~Judy Garland]
“You can shed tears that she is gone,
or you can smile because she has lived.
You can close your eyes and pray that she'll come back,
or you can open your eyes and see all she's left.
Your heart can be empty because you can't see her,
or you can be full of the love you shared.
You can turn your back on tomorrow and live yesterday,
or you can be happy for tomorrow because of yesterday.
You can remember her only that she is gone,
or you can cherish her memory and let it live on.
You can cry and close your mind,
be empty and turn your back.
Or you can do what she'd want:
smile, open your eyes, love and go on.”
[~David Harkins, British Poet and Painter]
One of the
hardest things in life is watching the person you love, love someone else. [unknown]
“If you love somebody, let them go. If they return, they were always yours. If they don't, they never were.” [unknown]
Absence diminishes mediocre passions and increases great ones, as the wind extinguishes candles and fans fires. [~Francois de La Rochefoucauld]
Affection is responsible for nine-tenths of whatever solid and durable happiness there is in our lives. [~C. S. Lewis]
As soon go kindle fire with snow, as seek to quench the
fire of love with words. [~William
Shakespeare]
At the touch of love everyone becomes a poet. [~Plato]
At the touch of love everyone becomes a poet. [~Plato]

One word frees us of all the weight and pain of life: That word is love. [~Sophocles]
Love... What is love? Love is to love someone for who they are, who
they were, and who they will be. [~Chris
Moore]
Love is a language spoken by everyone, but understood only by a heart. [~ Shirley Rindani]
Never say goodbye when you still want to try.
Never give up when you still feel you can take it.
Never say you don't love a person when you can't let go. [~Dons]
Never give up when you still feel you can take it.
Never say you don't love a person when you can't let go. [~Dons]
