“Do you want me to tell you something really subversive? Love is everything it's cracked up to be. That's why people are so cynical about it. It really is worth fighting for, being brave for, risking everything for. And the trouble is, if you don't risk anything, you risk even more.”
Erica Jong
“You never lose by loving. You always lose by holding back.”
Barbara De Angelis
“I have found that if you love life, life will love you back.”
Arthur Rubinstein
“Life is the flower for which love is the honey.”
Victor Hugo
“When you choose to love as God loves, it will never be safe....but it will set you free.”
Janet Larson
“Being deeply loved by someone gives you strength, while loving someone deeply gives you courage.”
Lao Tzu
“We take a risk when we open our hearts because the truth is, if we open our hearts, we will get hurt. You can’t open your heart and not have some hurt because you’re in a human experience. Even if it’s the love of your life and you have many wonderful, deepening, growing, powerful years together, it’s a human experience and that person will pass over. Love takes courage. Be courageous.”
