Love was an American rock group of the 1960s and 1970s. They were led by singer, songwriter and guitarist Arthur Lee (born March 7, 1945 in Memphis). The ancient Greeks had four different words we translate love. It is important to understand the difference between the words:
Ann Landers:
If you have love in your life it can make up for a great many things you lack. If you don't have it, no matter what else there is, it's not enough.
Anne Morrow Lindbergh:
Him that I love, I wish to be free -- even from me.
Antoine de Saint-Exupery:
Love does not consist of gazing at each other, but in looking together in the same direction.
Barbara De Angelis:
Love is a choice you make from moment to moment.
Barbara De Angelis:
Love and kindness are never wasted. They always make a difference. They bless the one who receives them, and they bless you, the giver.
Bayard Taylor:
I love thee, I love but thee
With a love that shall not die
Till the sun grows cold,
And the stars grow old...
Bertrand Russell:
A sense of duty is useful in work, but offensive in personal relations. People wish to be liked, not be endured with patient resignation.
Bible:
Love is patient, love is kind.
It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud.
It is not rude, it is not self-seeking.
It is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs.
Love does not delight in evil, but rejoices with the truth.
It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres.
Love never fails.
I Corinthians 13:4-8
Blaise Pascal:
The heart has its reasons which reason knows not of.
C.S. Lewis:
Why love if losing hurts so much? We love to know that we are not alone.
Carl Jung:
Where love rules, there is no will to power; and where power predominates, there love is lacking. The one is the shadow of the other.
Ernest Becker:
When we understand that man is the only animal who must create meaning, who must open a wedge into neutral nature, we already understand the essence of love. Love is the problem of an animal who must find life, create a dialogue with nature in order to experience his own being.
Euripides:
He is not a lover who does not love forever.
Felix Adler:
Love is the expansion of two natures in such fashion that each include the other, each is enriched by the other.
Francis David:
We need not think alike to love alike.
Franklin P. Jones:
Love doesn't make the world go 'round; love is what makes the ride worthwhile.
Friedrich Nietzsche:
It is not a lack of love, but a lack of friendship that makes unhappy marriages.
Georg C. Lichtenberg:
Love is blind, but marriage restores its sight.
George MacDonald:
To be trusted is a greater compliment than to be loved.
George Sand:
There is only one happiness in life, to love and be loved.
George Santayana:
Love is only half the illusion; the lover, but not his love, is deceived.
The Life of Reason, 1905-1906
Goethe:
To be loved for what one is, is the greatest exception. The great majority love in others only what they lend him, their own selves, their version of him.
Henry David Thoreau:
Love must be as much a light as it is a flame.
Henry David Thoreau:
There is no remedy for love but to love more.
Henry Wadsworth Longfellow:
If I am not worth the wooing, I am surely not worth the winning.
Herman Hesse:
If I know what love is, it is because of you.
