"I don't pretend to know what love is for everyone, but I can tell you what it is for me;
love is knowing all about someone, and still wanting to be with them more than any other person;
love is trusting them enough to tell them everything about yourself, including the things you might be ashamed of;
love is feeling comfortable and safe with someone, but still getting weak knees when they walk into a room and smile at you."

"The minute I heard my first love story I started looking for you, not knowing how blind that was. Lovers don't finally meet somewhere. They're in each other all along."

"Love is what makes two people sit in the middle of a bench when there is plenty of room at both ends."

"The most wonderful of all things in life, I believe, is the discovery of another human being with whom one's relationship has a growing depth, beauty, and joy as the years increase. This inner progressiveness of love between two human beings is a most marvelous thing; it cannot be found by looking for it or by passionately wishing for it. It is a sort of divine accident, and the most wonderful of all things in life."

"There is no feeling more comforting and consoling than knowing you are next to the one you love."

"If I could be anything in the world I would want to be a teardrop because I would be born in your eyes, live on your cheeks, and die on your lips."

"For it was not into my ear you whispered, but into my heart. It was not my lips you kissed, but my soul."

"How can a woman be expected to be happy with a man who insists on treating her as if she were a perfectly normal human being."

"Oh the comfort, the inexpressible comfort of feeling safe with a person, having neither to weigh thoughts nor measure words, but pouring them all right out, just as they are."

"When I say 'I love you', it's not because I want you or because I can't have you. It has nothing to do with me. I love what you are, what you do, how you try. I've seen your kindness and your strength. I've seen the best and the worst of you. And I understand with perfect clarity exactly what you are. You're a hell of a woman."

"You can't stop loving or wanting to love because when it's right, it's the best thing in the world. When you're in a relationship and it's good, even if nothing else in your life is right, you feel like your whole world is complete."

"Here is the deepest secret nobody knows.
Here is the root of the root and the bud of the bud
And the sky of the sky of a tree called life;
Which grows higher than soul can hope or mind can hide.
And this is the wonder that's keeping the stars apart.
I carry your heart.
I carry it in my heart."
