Love is a funny thing isn’t it? So confusing, so saddening, so malicious and yet it can be so beautiful and addicting at the same time. Love has dazzled men and women throughout history; spawned songs and poems in its honor. It doesn’t matter what color you have, what god you believe in or what language you speak; love connects us all. Here are my favorite quotes about love. Share them on Facebook, write some down or send one to your other half. If you think pictures speak more than a thousand words, wait till you’ve read these quotes! I have sorted them under two subtitles: one for famous authors such as writers, poets, singers, actors and philosophers; another for quotes from unknown authors but too beautiful to go unnoticed. Enjoy my collection of the top quotes about the greatest thing in life: love

But if he can make you laugh at least once, causes you to think twice, and if he admits to being human and making mistakes, hold onto him and give him the most you can. He isn’t going to quote poetry, he’s not thinking about you every moment, but he will give you a part of him that he knows you could break. Don’t hurt him, don’t change him, and don’t expect for more than he can give. Don’t analyze. Smile when he makes you happy, yell when he makes you mad, and miss him when he’s not there. Love hard when there is love to be had. Because perfect guys don’t exist, but there’s always one guy that is perfect for you.” – Bob Marley
