　　Love is composed of a single soul inhabiting two bodies.
　　- Aristotle
　　Being deeply loved by someone gives you strength, while loving someone deeply gives you courage.

　　- William Shakespeare, Romeo and Juliet
　　How do I love thee? Let me count the ways.

　　- Henry Ward5 Beecher
　　Age does not protect you from love. But love, to some extent, protects you from age.

　　- Antoine de Saint-Exupery
　　Love has no desire but to fulfill6 itself. But if you love and must needs have desires, let these be your desires; To melt and be like a running brook7 that sings its melody to the night. To know the pain of too much tenderness. To be wounded by your own understanding of love; And to bleed willingly and joyfully8.
　　- Kahlil Gibran, The Prophet
　　The best and most beautiful things in the world cannot be seen or even touched. They must be felt with the heart.

　　- Zora Neale Hurston
　　Love is life. All, everything that I understand, I understand only because I love. Everything is, everything exists, only because I love.
　　- Leo Tolstoy
　　Love is like quicksilver in the hand. Leave the fingers open and it stays. Clutch it, and it darts9 away.
　　- Dorothy Parker
　　I have learned not to worry about love; but to honor its coming with all my heart.
　　- Alice Walker
　　I love you without knowing how, or when, or from where. I love you straightforwardly10, without complexities11 or pride; so I love you because I know no other way than this: where I does not exist nor you, so close that your hand on my chest is my hand, so close that your eyes close as I fall asleep.
　　- Pablo Neruda, "Love Sonnet XVII"
