“Love was not in it for me at first. I dated guys because of the way they looked. And then I began to learn that it's what's inside that counts. Love to me now is understanding. It's giving.”
Crystal Waters
“It's Lust at First Sight, Not Love at First Sight. Love Requires First to Understand and Appreciate, Lust Only Requires Attraction.”

“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
“The minute I heard my first love story I started looking for you, not knowing how blind that was. Lovers don't finally meet somewhere. They're in each other all along.”
Jalal ad-Din Rumi
“I do not trust people who don't love themselves and yet tell me, 'I love you.' There is an African saying which is: Be careful when a naked person offers you a shirt.”
Maya Angelou
“Men always want to be a woman's first love - women like to be a mans last romance.”
Oscar Wilde
“Noone can truely love you, if you are not truely loving you! Fall in love with you and you will discover what being loved is all about.”
