What greater thing is there for two human souls than to feel that 

they are joined... to strengthen each other... 

to be at one with each other in silent unspeakable memories.

In the arithmetic of love, one plus one equals everything, 

and two minus one equals nothing.

For one human being to love another that is perhaps the most difficult 

of our tasks; the ultimate, the last test and proof; 

the work for which all other work is but preparation.

There is more hunger for love and appreciation in this 

world than for bread.

Love cannot endure indifference. It needs to be wanted. 

Like a lamp, it needs to be fed out of the oil of another's heart, 

or its flame burns low.

You will find as you look back upon your life that the moments 

when you have really lived, are the moments when you have done 

things in a spirit of love.

Treasure the love you receive above all.
It will survive long after your good health has vanished.

The person who tries to live alone will not succeed as a human being. 

His heart withers if it does not answer another heart.

His mind shrinks away if he hears only the echoes of his own 

thoughts and finds no other inspiration.

Love works in miracles every day: such as weakening the strong, 

and stretching the weak; making fools of the wise, 

and wise men of fools; favouring the passions, destroying reason, 

and in a word, turning everything topsy-turvy.

All love that has not friendship for its base,
is like a mansion built upon the sand.

Love is the emblem of eternity: it confounds all notion of time:
effaces all memory of a beginning, all fear of an end.

Love is the history of a woman's life; it is an episode in man's.

The loving are the daring.

Loneliness and the feeling of being unwanted is the most terrible.

The best portion of a good man's life,
His little, nameless, unremembered acts,
Of kindness and of love.

Love is a thing, well, its kind of like quicksand: 
The more you are in it, the deeper you sink. 
And when it hits you, you've just got to fall.

Love is the expansion of two natures in such fashion
that each include the other,
each is enriched by the other.

Think about it, there must be higher love
Down in the heart or hidden in the stars above
Without it, life is a wasted time
Look inside your heart, I'll look inside mine.

Love is an electric blanket with somebody else in control of the switch.

Love does not consist in gazing at each other
but in looking together in the same direction.

Find the person who will love you because of your differences and
not in spite of them and you have found a lover for life.

Romance has been elegantly defined as the offspring of fiction and love.

Find the person who will love you because of your differences and
not in spite of them and you have found a lover for life.

Nobody will ever win the battle of the sexes.
There?s too much fraternizing with the enemy.

To laugh often and love much... to appreciate beauty,
to find the best in others, to give one's self...
this is to have succeeded.

"Love in the heart was not meant there to stay. Love is not love till you give it away". For love to be ever lasting and eternal every one should be aware of the different stages of love and know its significance. Following are the different phases through which you will travel in your love life and only those who pass it will have an endless love.

ATTRACTION
Attraction can be defined as something, which is more than friendship and is a step towards getting ready for a relationship. Now attraction is of two types:

a. Physical Attraction - happens when your body reacts to another person. Heart rate increases; temperature rises, palms get sweaty; stomach flutters; throat tightens; etc. This is what will tell you that you are ready for the first contact and also whether you are comfortable in the company of the other person.

b. Emotional Attraction - develops next if the circumstances are right. After being drawn to a person physically, you then begin to come closer. If you find you have things in common -- hobbies, ideologies, career, education, or some other common ground -- then an emotional attraction starts to form. Sometimes an emotional attraction can occur even when a physical attraction does not. And in this case, the bond will be stronger between the two who connect, since no preconceived notions based on physical appearance has occurred.

INTIMACY
Intimacy is something, which a person experiences when you learn to trust and believe your lover. It is a close association with another person of the deepest nature. You share you thoughts, feelings, and dreams. You feel free to discuss everything with this person and you are absolutely comfortable in his company. Thus intimacy develops gradually. If you can't establish intimacy with your partner, your relationship may work for a while, but is unlikely to endure throughout the years. Intimacy is actually the path to a true, healthy and beautiful relationship.

ROMANCE
Romance is the essence of a relationship. Without romance your love life will not exist. Romance is the true identity of your love. It brings out your true self and helps you be a better lover, husband and partner. Romance is a celebration of the life you live as part of a couple. It springs naturally and originates from within your heart. It makes you do things that you possibly couldn't have imagined to do otherwise. It shows you who you are and reminds you of the role you play in a relationship. Romance is not responsibility but it is caring about your responsibilities towards your lover and partner. Romance is the appreciation of two people who are celebrating the lucky coincidence that they found each other.

PASSION
The third stage is passion, which basically means a desire for another person, which has grown to an intensity that can't be ignored. This is often where an emotional relationship turns into a physical relationship. The passion stage is very important. For from here you will understand the true meaning and nature of your relationship. If there is no passion then its best to let go but if there is passion in your relationship then it is time to go on to the next stage.

COMMITMENT
The last stage is commitment. This is when you know that you want to spend your whole life with this person you love and you can do anything for him. It is when your whole world just revolves round your lover and you take a pledge to remain true to your mate throughout good and bad times, be by his side whenever he needs you.
