“More affectionate than a kiss is a well done hug in someone that you love. Have you ever notice how I can give delicious hugs?”
Carmen Miranda
“The decision to kiss for the first time is the most crucial in any love story. It changes the relationship of two people much more strongly than even the final surrender; because this kiss already has within it that surrender.”
Emil Ludwig
“They invented hugs to let people know you love them without saying anything.”
Bil Keane
“The beginning of love is to let those we love be perfectly themselves, and not to twist them to fit our own image. Otherwise we love only the reflection of ourselves we find in them.”
Thomas Merton
“O innocent victims of Cupid,Remember this terse little verse:To let a fool kiss you is stupid,To let a kiss fool you is worse.”
E. Y. Harburg
“Love is not affectionate feeling, but a steady wish for the loved person's ultimate good as far as it can be obtained”
C.S. Lewis
“I bid you a fond and affectionate farewell,”
George Wallace
