I would rather share one lifetime with you than face all the ages of this world alone. ~ The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring, J.R.R. Tokein
When you love someone, they become a part of who you are. They’re in everything you do. They’re in the air you breathe and the water you drink and the blood in your veins. Their touch stays on your skin and their voice stays in your ears and their thoughts stay in your mind. You know their dreams because their nightmares pierce your heart and their good dreams are your dreams too. And you don’t think they’re perfect, but you know their flaws, the deep-down truth of them, and the shadows of all their secrets, and they don’t frighten you away; in fact you love them more for it, because you don’t want perfect. You want them. ~ Lady Midnight, Cassandra Clare
If you live to be a hundred, I want to live to be a hundred minus one day, so I never have to live without you. ~ Winnie the Pooh, A.A. Milne
Love is a temporary madness, it erupts like volcanoes and then subsides. And when it subsides, you have to make a decision. You have to work out whether your roots have 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, it is not the promulgation of promises of eternal passion, it is not the desire to mate every second minute of the day, it is not lying awake at night imagining that he is kissing every cranny of your body. No, don’t blush, I am telling you some truths. That is just being “in love”, which any fool can do. Love itself is what is left over when being in love has burned away, and this is both an art and a fortunate accident. ~ Captain Corelli’s Mandolin, Louis de Bernières
‘The greatest thing you’ll ever learn is just to love, and be loved in return.’ ~ Moulin Rouge
‘I’m gonna pull apart time for you.’ ~ The Girl Who Waited, Doctor Who
You are the moon of my life. That is all I know and all I need to know. ~ A Game of Thrones, George R.R. Martin
You know you’re in love when you can’t fall asleep because reality is finally better than your dreams. ~ Dr Suess
“How do you spell ‘love’?”
“You don’t spell it… You feel it” ~ Winnie the Pooh, A.A. Milne
We accept the love we think we deserve. ~ The Perks of Being a Wallflower, Stephen Chbosky
‘Tis better to have loved and lost
Than never to have loved at all. ~ In Memoriam, Alfred Tennyson
I fell in love with her courage, her sincerity, and her flaming self-respect. And it’s these things I’d believe in, even if the whole world indulged in wild suspicions that she wasn’t all she should be. I love her and it is the beginning of everything. ~ F. Scott Fitzgerald
“But isn’t everything we do in life a way to be loved a little more?” ~ Before Sunrise
