everybody talks about and
few have seen.

True Love Passages Quotes

Perfect love is rare indeed—for to be a lover
will require that you continually have the subtlety
of the very wise, the flexibility of the child, the
sensitivity of the artist, the understanding of the
philosopher, the acceptance of the saint, the
tolerance of the scholar and the fortitude of
the certain.

~ Leo Buscaglia

Love is a smoke made with the fume of sighs.
Being purged, a fire sparkling in lovers' eyes.
Being vexed, a sea nourished with lovers' tears.
What is it else?
A madness most discreet,
a choking gall and a preserving sweet.

~ William Shakespeare

True Love Passages Quotes

True love is night jasmine,
a diamond in darkness,
the heartbeat no cardiologist
has ever heard. It is the most
common of miracles, fashioned
of fleecy clouds—
a handful of stars
tossed into the night sky.

~ Jim Bishop

True love is eternal, infinite, and always
like itself. It is equal and pure, without violent
demonstrations: it is seen with white hairs
and is always young in the heart.

~ Honore de Balzac
