Love is composed of a single soul inhabiting two bodies.

My love as deep; the more I give to thee,

The more I have, for both are infinite.

Love has no desire but to fulfill itself.

But if you love and must needs 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 is life. All, everything that I understand, I understand only because I love. Everything is, everything exists, only because I love.

--Leo Tolstoy

Love is like quicksilver in the hand. Leave the fingers open and it stays. Clutch it, and it darts away.

--Dorothy Parker

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I have learned not to worry about love; but to honor its coming with all my heart.

--Alice Walker

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I love you without knowing how, or when, or when, or from where.

I love you straightforwardly, without complexities or pride;

so I love you because I know no other way

than this: where I does not exist nor you,

so close that your hand on my chest is my hand,

so close that your eyes close as I fall asleep.

--Pablo Neruda, "Love Sonnet XVII"
