The best thing to hold onto in life is each other.

One day you will ask me which is more important? My life or yours? I will say mine and you will walk away not knowing that you are my life.

The best and most beautiful things in the world cannot be seen or even touched – they must be felt with the heart.

We loved with a love that was more than love.

The love we give away is the only love we keep.

For those who love… time is eternity.

I carry your heart with me. I carry it in my heart.

There is no remedy for love but to love more.

The arms of love encompass you with your present, your past, your future, the arms of love gather you together.

Love may not make the world go round, but I must admit that it makes the ride worthwhile.

For true love is inexhaustible; the more you give, the more you have. And if you go to draw at the true fountainhead, the more water you draw, the more abundant is its flow.

Not every effort at loving difficult people will have a positive ending… We don’t love people in hopes of a happy ending. We love them because it’s the right thing to do.

When I saw you I fell in love. And you smiled because you knew.

Things must be felt with the heart.

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

Do one act of kindness each day of the year and change 365 lives.

I love thee to the depth and breadth and height my soul can reach.

Time is too slow for those who wait, too swift for those who fear, too long for those who grieve, too short for those who rejoice, but for those who love, time is eternity.

The person determined to love others will always find a way to do so.

Time is: Too slow for those who wait, too swift for those who fear.

‘Twas not my lips you kissed but my soul.

A kiss is a lovely trick designed by nature to stop speech when words become superfluous.

There is a time for risky love. There is a time for extravagant gestures. There is a time to pour out your affections on one you love. And when the time comes – seize it, don’t miss it.

New Rule: This Valentine’s Day Americans must remember that politicians are like a box of chocolates. We bite into them to find out what’s on the inside only to discover that Democrats are too often soft and gooey and Republicans are mostly nuts.

I like Valentine’s Day. The trouble is the florists and the candy-makers and the card people are all advertising so much, you don’t dare let the day go by without making an offering, whether you mean it or not. Money exceeds affection.

I remember being away somewhere, and I had forgotten it was Valentine’s Day with a person, and that was very embarrassing.

I know of only one duty, and that is to love.

Each time you love, love as deeply as if it were forever.

Like I’ve always said, love wouldn’t be blind if the braille weren’t so damned much fun.

I was in a band called The Valentines and they broke up last week.

Something that’s of common interest to every man, woman and child on the planet must surely be the notion of ‘Peace’. Without ‘Peace’ we cannot survive. Valentine’s Day is on the 14 February. Christmas Day is on the 25 December. Peace Day has been established by the United Nations on the 21 September, and the whole world is invited to participate.

Each moment of a happy lover’s hour is worth an age of dull and common life.

A man can do only what he can do. But if he does that each day he can sleep at night and do it again the next day.

Love is but the discovery of ourselves in others, and the delight in the recognition.

I have written a raucous valentine to a poet’s dream and agony.
