Benvolio: What sadness lengthens Romeo's hours? Romeo: Not having that, which, having, makes them short.
The law of love could be best understood and learned through little children.
All a girl really wants is for one guy to prove to her that they are not all the same.
Love is the only flower that grows and blossoms without the aid of the seasons

Gamble everything for love, if you're a true human being.
We that are true lovers run into strange capers.
When we put God first, all other things fall into their proper place or drop out of our lives. Our love of the Lord will govern the claims for our affection, the demands on our time, the interests we pursue, and the order of our priorities.
It has been said that the love of money is the root of all evil. The want of money is so quite as truly.
A peaceful man does more good than a learned one.
To say! To know how to say! To know how to exist via the written voice and the intellectual image! This is all that matters in life; the rest is men and women, imagined loves and factitious vanities, the wiles of our digestion and forgetfulness, people squirming — like worms when a rock is lifted — under the huge abstract boulder of the meaningless blue sky.

If I say your voice is an amber waterfall in which I yearn to burn each day, if you eat my mouth like a mystical rose with powers of healing and damnation, If I confess that your body is the only civilization I long to experience… would it mean that we are close to knowing something about love?
Love always creates, it never destroys. In this lie's man's only promise.
Death is a challenge. It tells us not to waste time... It tells us to tell each other right now that we love each other.
Don't brood. Get on with living and loving. You don't have forever.
Love is fed by the imagination, by which we become wiser than we know, better than we feel, nobler than we are: by which we can see life as a whole, by which and by which alone we can understand others in their real and their ideal relation. Only what is fine, and finely conceived can feed love. But anything will feed hate.
My only love sprung from my only hate.
