first up--some of my favorite quotes on love or anything resembling love:
"I've dreamed of this a thousand times before/In my dreams I couldn't love you more" - My Valentine, by Martina McBride
"If there were no words/No way to speak/I would still hear you" - My Valentine again. Seriously, the whole song is so romantic.
"My hands shake clasped with fear, As you come near/To say goodnight, just like a dove/ A peaceful sign/To help us by.As you come in/Let this begin/Stars fall like dust, our lips will touch/We speak too much." - Breathe, by Angels and Airwaves
"Don't waste your time on me you're already the voice inside my head" - I Miss You, by Blink182
"Please stay untill I'm gone/I'm here hold on to me/I'm right here waiting/And take my one last breath/And don't forget/That I will be right here waiting" - Not Now, by Blink182
"I wanna call the stars, down from the sky/I wanna live a day, that never dies" - When You Tell Me That You Love Me
"Shall I compare thee to a summer's day? Thou art more lovely and more temperate." - William Shakespeare
"My love for Linton is like the foliage in the woods. Time will change it, I'm well aware, as winter changes the trees - my love for Heathcliff resembles the eternal rocks beneath - a source of little visible delight, but necessary." - Wuthering Heights
"Time is how you spend you love" - On Beauty, by Zadie Smith
"...chalky whites and lively pinks, the underlying blue of her veins and the ever present human hint of yellow, intimation of what is to come" - On Beauty, by Zadie Smith
"Choosing love, then choosing it again, how loving and being in love could be so different" - The Mermaid Chair, by Sue Monk Kidd
"What I want is you. What I want is the enduring. The beautiful enduring" - Jessie, in The Mermaid Chair, by Sue Monk Kidd
"That is why, walking across a school campus on this particular December morning, I keep searching the sky. As if I expected to see, rather like hearts, a lost pair of kites hurrying towards heaven." - A Christmas Memory, by Truman Capote
These quotes are from songs, books, short stories, and poems. These aren't all, but they'll do for now :D
