Inspiring Love Quotes "Being deeply loved by someone gives you strength; loving someone deeply gives you courage." - Lao Tzu "I love that you get cold when it's 71 degrees out. I love that it takes you an hour and a half to order a sandwich. I love that you get a little crinkle in your nose when you're looking at me like I'm nuts. I love that after I spend a day with you, I can still smell your perfume on my clothes. And I love that you are the last person I want to talk to before I go to sleep at night. And it's not because I'm lonely, and it's not because it's New Year's Eve. I came here tonight because when you realize you want to spend the rest of your life with somebody, you want the rest of your life to start as soon as possible." - When Harry Met Sally "To the world you may be just one person, but to one person you may be the world." - Brandi Snyder "Above all things I believe in love.

One who is constantly reminding you of how much he cares and how lucky his is to have you ... The one who turns to his friends and says, 'that's her.'" - Anonymous "In the arithmetic of love, one plus one equals everything, and two minus one equals nothing." - Mignon McLaughlin "Life without love is like a tree without blossoms or fruit." - Kahlil Gibran "Keep love in your heart.
