You don't walk away if you love someone. You help the person.
I say to people who care for people who are dying if you really love that person and want to help them be with them when their end comes close. Sit with them - you don't even have to talk. You don't have to do anything but really be there with them.
It sounds like a cliche but I also learnt that you're not going to fall for the right person until you really love yourself and feel good about how you are.
A poet is before anything else a person who is passionately in love with language.
To fall in love is easy even to remain in it is not difficult our human loneliness is cause enough. But it is a hard quest worth making to find a comrade through whose steady presence one becomes steadily the person one desires to be.
If a person loves only one other person and is indifferent to all others his love is not love but a symbiotic attachment or an enlarged egotism.
Acceptance is not love. You love a person because he or she has lovable traits but you accept everybody just because they're alive and human.
The desire for possession is insatiable to such a point that it can survive even love itself. To love therefore is to sterilize the person one loves.
I often try to tell kids to think about all the people who love you don't cry over the one person who doesn't.
Love comes when manipulation stops when you think more about the other person than about his or her reactions to you. When you dare to reveal yourself fully. When you dare to be vulnerable.
Of all that is written I love only what a person has written with his own blood.
We all want to be in love and find that person who is going to love us no matter how our feet smell no matter how angry we get one day no matter the things we say that we don't mean.
Love is the expression of one's values the greatest reward you can earn for the moral qualities you have achieved in your character and person the emotional price paid by one man for the joy he receives from the virtues of another.
The sadness of the women's movement is that they don't allow the necessity of love. See I don't personally trust any revolution where love is not allowed.
I love people who make me laugh. I honestly think it's the thing I like most to laugh. It cures a multitude of ills. It's probably the most important thing in a person.
A successful marriage requires falling in love many times always with the same person.
You can search throughout the entire universe for someone who is more deserving of your love and affection than you are yourself and that person is not to be found anywhere. You yourself as much as anybody in the entire universe deserve your love and affection.
If you could only love enough you could be the most powerful person in the world.
Love is a gross exaggeration of the difference between one person and everybody else.
It's useless to hold a person to anything he says while he's in love drunk or running for office.
A pair of powerful spectacles has sometimes sufficed to cure a person in love.
Being taken for granted can be a compliment. It means that you've become a comfortable trusted element in another person's life.
It's surprising how many persons go through life without ever recognizing that their feelings toward other people are largely determined by their feelings toward themselves and if you're not comfortable within yourself you can't be comfortable with others.
In the last analysis the individual person is responsible for living his own life and for 'finding himself.' If he persists in shifting his responsibility to somebody else he fails to find out the meaning of his own existence.
