Sappy Quotes

[Danni Reyok]

Lately, I've been bored with it being the last week of my summer vaction and all. So I decided this morning to look up love related quotes that I think are pretty cute. These are some of the best I found:

"Meeting you was fate, becoming your friend was a choice, but falling in love with you I had no control over."

"I bet everyone else can look into your eyes a million times and never see what I see in you."

"I swear I don't wanna love you...but you're making it hard not to."

"No one falls in love by choice, it is by CHANCE. No one stays in love by chance, it is by WORK. And no one falls out of love by chance, it is by CHOICE."

"I would die for you because I dont know how I could live my life without you in it..."

"There are a hundred reasons why I should give up, but you're the one reason I keep going."

She said, "Im afraid I'll fall".
He whispered, "I have wings".

Just some cutesy thing's I found. :D

I'd say define "love-related" first. :P There are some serious quotes about love.

"If I had never met him I would have dreamed him into being." -Anzia Yezierska

"It is better to have loved and lost than never to have lost at all." -Samuel Butler (1835 - 1902), The Way of All Flesh, Chapter 77

"There is always some madness in love. But there is also always some reason in madness." -Friedrich Nietzsche (1844 - 1900), "On Reading and Writing"

"Love is not blind - it sees more, not less. But because it sees more, it is willing to see less." -Rabbi Julius Gordon

"Love is a snowmobile racing across the tundra and then suddenly it flips over, pinning you underneath. At night, the ice weasels come." -Matt Groening (1954 - ), "Life in Hell"

"One word frees us of all the weight and pain of life: That word is love." -Sophocles (496 BC - 406 BC)

Not quite the same kind of quotations, but still love-related.

[Dasquian Belargic]

This is my favorite quote on love. It's part of a letter by the poet John Keats to his fiancée Fanny Brawne.


My love has made me selfish. I cannot exist without you - I am forgetful of every thing but seeing you again - my Life seems to stop there - I see no further. You have absorb'd me. I have a sensation at the present moment as though I was dissolving - I should be exquisitely miserable without the hope of soon seeing you. I should be afraid to separate myself far from you. My sweet Fanny, will your heart never change? My love, will it? I have no limit now to my love - You note came in just here - I cannot be happier away from you - 'T is richer than an Argosy of Pearles. Do not threat me even in jest. I have been astonished that Men could die Martyrs for religion - I have shudder'd at it - I shudder no more - I could be martyr'd for my Religion - Love is my religion - I could die for that - I could die for you. My Creed is Love and you are its only tenet - You have ravish'd me away by a Power I cannot resist: and yet I could resist till I saw you; and even since I have seen you I have endeavoured often "to reason against the reasons of my Love." I can do that no more - the pain would be too great - My Love is selfish - I cannot breathe without you.

Here are some others. Most of my favorite quotes about love are kind of sad :(


I cannot convey the extent of my pain. Even if I could adequately explain to another person the things he gave me - the calm, the confidence, the joy, the knowledge - even if I could get this across to another person, it would only be the first step. Then I would have to convey what it is like to have had all this, even if only by chance, and then to have lost it. -- Elliot Pearlman, Seven Types of Ambiguity


A wondrous subtle thing is love, for here were we two who had never seen each other before that day, between whom no word or even look of affection had ever passed, and yet now, in an hour of trouble, our hands instinctively sought for each other. I have marvelled at it since, but at the time it seemed the most natural thing that I should go out to her so, and, as she has often told me, there was in her also the instinct to turn to me for comfort and protection. So we stood, hand-in-hand, like two children, and there was peace in our hearts for all the dark things that surrounded us. -- Sir A. Conan Doyle, The Sign of the Four


When I desire you a part of me is gone: my want of you partakes of me. So reasons the lover at the edge of eros. The presence of want awakens in him nostalgia for wholeness. His thoughts turn toward questions of personal identity: he must recover and reincorporate what is gone if he is to be a complete person. The locus classicus for this view of desire is the speech of Aristophanes in Plato's Symposium. Here Aristophanes accounts for the nature of human eros by means of a fantastic anthropology. Human beings were originally round organisms, each composed of two people joined together as one perfect sphere. These rolled about everywhere and were exceedingly happy. But the spherical creatures grew overambitious, thinking to roll right up to Olympus, so Zeus chopped each of them in two. As a result everyone must go now through life in search of the one and only other person who can round him out again. "Sliced in two like a flatfish," says Aristophanes, "each of us is perpetually hunting for the matching half of himself". -- Anne Carson, Eros the Bittersweet

[Constilance Delauvay]

Definition of love according to HK-47 (this particular quote is from Knights of the Old Republic 2):

"Definition: 'Love' is making a shot to the knees of a target 120 kilometers away using an Aratech sniper rifle with a tri-light scope. Statement: This definition, I am told, is subject to interpretation. Obviously, love is a matter of odds. Not many meatbags could make such a shot, and fewer would derive love from it. Yet for me, love is knowing your target, putting them in your targeting reticle, and together, achieving a singular purpose, against statistically long odds."

That is my officially second favorite quote about love.
