VALENTINE’S DAY: QUOTATIONS


Compiled by: Ronquillo C. Tolentino

Love is composed of a single soul inhabiting two bodies. -Aristotle

Being deeply loved by someone gives you strength, while loving someone deeply gives you courage. -Lao Tzu

My bounty is as boundless as the sea, My love as deep; the more I give to thee, The more I have, for both are infinite. - William Shakespeare, Romeo and Juliet

How do I love thee? Let me count the ways. -Elizabeth Barrett Browning

Young love is a flame; very pretty, often very hot and fierce, but still only light and flickering. The love of the older and disciplined heart is as coals, deep burning, unquenchable. -Henry Ward Beecher

Age does not protect you from love. But love, to some extent, protects you from age. -Anais Nin

Life has taught us that love does not consist in gazing at each other but in looking outward in the same direction. -Antoine de Saint-Exupery

Love has no desire but to fulfill itself. But if you love and must need have desires, let these be your desires; To melt and be like a running brook that sings its melody to the night; To know the pain of too much tenderness; To be wounded by your own understanding of love; And to bleed willingly and joyfully. -Kahlil Gibran, The Prophet

Love does not dominate; it cultivates. - Johann Wolfgang von Goethe /MP
