Immature love says: "I love you because I need you." Mature love says: "I need you because I love you."
ERICH FROMM
The Art of Loving
Love is divine only and difficult always. If you think it is easy you are a fool. If you think it is natural you are blind. It is a learned application without reason or motive except that it is God.
TONI MORRISON
Paradise
To follow the impulse of love and feeling is the secret law of every woman's heart.

You can love more than one person at a time, and I don't give a damn what the self-help books say.
RITA MAE BROWN
Full Cry
Man's love is of man's life a thing apart,
'Tis woman's whole existence.
LORD BYRON
Don Juan
'Know that Love is a careless child,
And forgets promises past;
He is blind, he is deaf when he list,
And in faith never fast.
'His desire is a dureless content,
And a trustless joy;
He is won with a world of despair,
And is lost with a toy.

Unfolds on earth a perfect flower.

A. A. MILNE
Winnie the Pooh
Pains of love be sweeter far
Than all other pleasures are.
JOHN DRYDEN
Tyrannic Love
I say I'm in love with her. What does that mean? It means I review my future and my past in the light of this feeling. It is though I wrote in a foreign language that I am suddenly able to read. Wordlessly, she explains me to myself. Like genius, she is ignorant of what she does.
JEANETTE WINTERSON
The Passion
Love life seems to be that factor which requires the largest quantity of magical tinkering.

Love had a thousand shapes.
VIRGINIA WOOLF

The greatest pleasures of love are inseparable from its greatest pains: Love has the face of a goddess, but the talons of a lion.
IVAN PANIN
Thoughts
It's logical that everyone wants to be in love. Then, for a while, life isn't taken up with the tedium of thinking everything through, talking things through. It's nice to be able to notice small objects or small moments, to point them out and to have someone eager to pretend that there's more to them than it seems.
ANN BEATTIE
"Moving Water", The New Yorker Stories
To give up another person's love is a mild suicide; like a very bad inoculation as compared to the full disease.
WYNDHAM LEWIS
Tarr
This is the morning of our love
It's just the dawning of our love
I feel you
Your heart it sings
I feel you
The joy it brings
Where heaven waits
Those golden gates
And back again
You take me to
And lead me through oblivion
DEPECHE MODE
"I Feel You", Songs of Faith and Devotion
Love's a bully, pushing and shoving
In the belly of a woman.
Heavy rhythm taking over
To stick together a man and a woman
Stick together man and a woman
Stick together.
U2
"Do You Feel Loved", Pop
