#love

"Remember that the best relationship is one in which your love for each other exceeds your need for each other."

"Once the subject matter of rock n' roll changed from cars and pop love songs to songs about really true love and the blues and death and mortality, this light bulb went off in my head and I went, 'Oh, that's what they're doing. That's kind of - that's art.'"

"Everyone’s different, and in that way everyone’s the same. Stand out by sitting down. Try my love seat—it’s made for two people, so you can be comfortably obese."

"If I love you more than you love me, I’m as good as dead. Yet I can’t make myself take it back. I can’t just walk away from you, because every time you pass by me without smiling, without touching my hand, or at least making eye contact, it feels like I’m dying inside."

"Be fun! I don't like homes or rooms that don't have a sense of humor or have some sense of whimsy or a personality. Your home should reflect who you are, and what you love. I would never have something in my home because it's the thing to have. I have to love it and it needs some connection to me."

"I know...and I love you. But I don't think we love each other in the same way. And...I think keeping you near me, would destroy me."

"See how she leans her cheek upon her hand. O, that I were a glove upon that hand That I might touch that cheek!"

"The world was collapsing, and the only thing that really mattered to me was that she was alive."

"Ah, when to the heart of man Was it ever less than a treason To go with the drift of things, To yield with a grace to reason, And bow and accept the end Of a love or a season?"

"Child, it's a very bad thing for a woman to face the worst that can happen to her, because after she's faced the worst she can't ever really fear anything again. ...Scarlett, always save something to fear— even as you save something to love..."

"Far too many people opened their hearts and lives at the drop of a hat. Why give someone that power over you? Why endow them with the ability to hurt you that much? Let someone in and you were asking for an emotional kicking some day."

"Old People [10w] At the mere mention of death they gasp for breath."

"I'll follow you to the next life if I have to,"he whispered harshly in her ear. "You'll never be free of me. I'll chase you through heaven and hell and beyond."He continued to whisper without stopping while his hands gripped her body close to his. "You stay with me, Holly,"he muttered savagely. "Don't do this to me. You stay, damn you."

"Spineless "How do you know which invertebrate lacks resolution if they're all spineless?"

"I am the poet of the poor, because I was poor when I loved; since I could not give gifts, I gave words."

"When red fights with white, pink is always the winner. Let that be a lesson in love."

"And only now, when he was gray-haired, had he fallen in love properly, thoroughly, for the first time in his life."

"She didn't belong anywhere and she never really belonged to anyone. And everyone else belonged somewhere and to someone. People thought she was too wonderful. But she only wanted to belong to someone. People always thought she was too wonderful to belong to them or that something too wonderful would hurt too much to lose. And that's why she liked him-- because he just thought she was crazy."

"She’d felt it before, she felt it now: the pull to fall in with him, to fall into him, to lose her sense of self."

"To love is to suffer and there can be no love otherwise."
