what's love?

True love is a discipline in which each divines the secret self of the other and refuses to believe in the mere daily self.

Marcel Proust
Love is space and time measured by the heart.

Sometimes we let affection, go unspoken, Sometimes we let our love go unexpressed, Sometimes we can't find words to tell our feelings, Especially towards those we love the best.

Voltaire
Love has features which pierce all hearts, he wears a bandage which conceals the faults of those beloved.

William Shakespeare
Love is a smoke made with the fume of sighs. Being purged, a fire sparkling in lovers' eyes. Being vexed, a sea nourished with lovers' tears. What is it else? A madness most discreet, a choking gall and a preserving sweet.

From the movie 'Moulin Rouge'
Love is a many splendid thing. Love lifts us up where we belong. All you need is love!

Bryce Courtney
Love is energy: it can neither be created nor destroyed. It just is and always will be, giving meaning to life and direction to goodness... Love will never die.

Charles Stanley
Romantic love reaches out in little ways, showing attention and admiration. Romantic love remembers what pleases a woman, what excites her, and what surprises her. Its actions whisper: you are the most special person in my life.

Thomas Trahern
Love is the true means by which the world is enjoyed: our love to others, and others' love to us.

Honore de Balzac
True love is eternal, infinite, and always like itself. It is equal and pure, without violent demonstrations; it is seen with white hairs and is always young in the heart.

Pierre Teilhard de Chardin
Love alone is capable of uniting living beings in such a way as to complete and fulfill them, for it alone takes them and joins them by what is deepest in themselves.

Lao Tzu
Being deeply loved by someone gives you strength, while loving someone deeply gives you courage.

Sir Arthur Wing Pinero
Those who love deeply never grow old; they may die of old age, but they die young.

Leo Tolstoy
When you love someone, you love the whole person, just as he or she is, and not as you would like them to be.

William Shakespeare
Love looks not with eyes, but with the mind.

Erica Jong
Love is everything it's cracked up to be. That's why people are so cynical about it...It really is worth fighting for, risking everything for. And the trouble is, if you don't risk everything, you risk even more.

Isaac Bashevis Singer
Sometimes love is stronger than a man's convictions.

Oliver Wendell Holmes
Love is the master key that opens the gates of happiness.

Robert Mitchum
Maybe love is like luck. You have to go all the way to find it.

Margaret Walker
Love stretches your heart and makes you big inside.

Howard Thurman
Love has no awareness of merit or demerit; it has no scale... Love loves; this is its nature.

Love is like war: Easy to begin but hard to end.

Nicholas Sparks
Love is more than three words mumbled before bedtime. Love is sustained by action, a pattern of devotion in the things we do for each other every day.

Peter Ustinov
Love is an act of endless forgiveness, a tender look which becomes a habit.

unknown
Love is like a violin. The music may stop now and then, but the strings remain forever.

Bill Wundram
In the final analysis, love is the only reflection of man's worth.

Elizabeth Browning
Love doesn't make the world go round, love is what makes the ride worthwhile.

Woody Allen
To love is to suffer. To avoid suffering one must not love. But then one suffers from not loving. Therefore to love is to suffer, not to love is to suffer. To suffer is to suffer. To be happy is to love. To be happy then is to suffer. But suffering makes one unhappy. Therefore, to be unhappy one must love, or love to suffer, or suffer from too much happiness. I hope you're getting this down.

there can be no definition to love. you've to experience it to understand it.
different people have different opinions and views towards love.
but if you've noticed, love's something great and wonderful (:

to me, love's not a game.
love's not only about holding hands, kissing, hugging, going out, having sweet and romantic times, having someone there for you, saying the three words to the other party.
love's forgiving, understanding, accepting, changing, and never giving up.
no one's perfect, you've to understand and accept them. forgive their mistakes and help them change or change yourself.
no relationship's forever happy going.
quarrels are inevitable, but if both of you are strong enough to overcome obstacles together, instead of breaking up, you'll be bonded stronger together.
and if you really love someone, you'll never have the thought of giving up on that person, that relationship, that love you knew and founded.

it's hard to love someone, and it's harder find someone you love and loves you back too!
so please cherish your other half. it's more than fate that you both met, knew each other, and got together.
