"I mean yes, she is beautiful, but that's not why I love her. I love her for who she is and if she weren't beautiful, it wouldn't matter. You know how someone's appearance can change the longer you know them? How a really attractive person, if you don't love them, can become more and more ugly? Whereas someone you might not have even noticed, that you wouldn't look at more than once, if you love them, can become the most beautiful thing you've ever seen. All you want to do is be with them. I love her, and it doesn't matter what she looks like."
"True love is like ghosts, which everybody talks about but few have seen."
The perfectly worded apologies are those that are the least sincere.
"Lost love is still love...it takes a different form, that's all. You can't see their smile or bring them food or tousle their hair or move them around a dance floor. But when those senses weaken, another heightens. Memory. Memory becomes your partner. You nurture it. You hold it. You dance with it. Life has to end, love doesn't."
"I love that you get cold when it's seventy one degrees out, I love that it takes you an hour and a half to order a sandwich, I love that you get a little crinkly above 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 someone loves you for a long, long time... REALLY loves you, then you become Real. Generally, by the time you are Real, most of your hair has been loved off, and your eyes drop out and you get loose in the joints and very shabby. But these things don't matter at all, because once you are Real, you can't be ugly."
Never say I love you, if you don't really care. Never talk about feelings, if they aren't really there. Never touch a life, if you mean to break a heart. Never say you're going to, if you don't plan to start. Never look me in the eye, if all you do is lie. Never say hello, if you really mean good bye.
"I am nothing special; of this I am sure. I am a common man with common thoughts, and I’ve led a common life. There are no monuments dedicated to me and my name will soon be forgotten, but I’ve loved another with all my heart and soul, and to me, that has always been enough."
"Looking back I have this to regret, that too often I loved and did not say so."
If I knew that today would be the last time I’d see you,
I would hug you tight and pray the Lord be the keeper of your soul.
If I knew that this would be the last time you pass through this door,
I’d embrace you, kiss you, and call you back for one more.
If I knew that this would be the last time I would hear your voice,
I’d take hold of each word to be able to hear it over and over again.
If I knew this is the last time I see you,
I’d tell you I love you, and would not just assume foolishly you know it already.
"You love somebody and then you don't love them anymore.But if you really love somebody,you always love them, don't you? Isn't there always some small part of you that reads their horoscope in the paper everyday?"
Have you ever wondered which hurts the most; saying something and wishing you had not, or saying nothing and wishing you had?
"A building gets torched. All that is left is ashes. I used to think that was true about everything- families, friends, feelings, but now I know that sometimes, if love proves real, if two people are meant to be together, nothing can keep them apart."
"Whatever our souls are made of, his and mine are the same."
"If you die in one hundred days, I want to die in one hundred days minus one... so that I will never have to life without you."
Not only do I love you for who you are, but for who I am when I am with you.
"You never lose by loving, you always lose by holding back."
People so seldom say I love you and then it's either too late, or love goes. So when I tell you I love you, it doesn't mean I know you'll never go. Only that I wish you didn't have to.
"Well, it was a million tiny little things that, when you added them all up, they meant we were supposed to be together... and I knew it. I knew it the very first time I touched her. It was like coming home... the only real home I'd ever known. I was just taking her hand to help her out of a car. It was like... magic."
"If you press me to say why I loved him, I feel it can be expressed by replying, 'because it was him; because it was me."
When these days are gone, when all the love we gave to each other slowly fades away, when your beautiful smile is only here as a dream, and when the words "I love you" are scripts of the past, I will always have the memories that were once moments and I will always know that no matter what, I got the chance to be loved by you.
Dear Angela,
I know in the past I've caused you pain, and I'm sorry. And
I'll always be sorry til the day I die. And I hate this pen I'm holding, because
I should be holding you. I hate this paper under my hand because it isn't even
you. I even hate this letter because it's not the whole truth. Because the whole
truth is so much more than a letter can even say. If you wanna hate me, go
ahead. If you wanna burn this letter, do it. You could burn the whole world
down. You could tell me to go to hell. I'd go. If you wanted me to. And I'd send
you a letter from there.
Sincerely, Jordan Catalano
Just because someone doesn't love you the way you want them to, it doesn't mean they don't love you with everything they've got.
Falling in love is exactly that. Falling. You don't have much control over it.
Sometimes I wish I had never met you. Because then I could go to sleep at night not knowing there was someone like you out there.
Don't cry because it's over, smile because it happened.
"You don't have to hold onto the pain, to hold onto the memory."
You know you're in love when you want to tell everyone about it, even though they haven't asked.
"Can I say something? Jimmy, from now on you stay away from me. I wasted thousands and thousands of kisses on you. Kisses that I thought were special because of your lips and your smile, and all of your color and life. I used to think that was the real you when you smiled but now I know that you don't mean any of it! You just save it for all of your songs. Shame on me for kissing you with my eyes closed so tight."
"Perhaps we all give the best of our hearts, uncritically, to those who hardly think about us in return."
People change and then forget to tell each other.
"Sometimes someone says something really small and it just fits right into this empty place in your heart and you can feel it settling there, maybe for the rest of your life"
Hugging is the means of getting two people so close together they can't see what's wrong with each other.
Everybody sees what you appear to be, but few people feel what you really are.
"Promise you won't forget me, not even in a hundred years...because if I thought you would, I'd never leave."
I always knew I'd laugh at the times that I cried, But I never knew that I would cry at the times I laughed.
Truly great friends are hard to find, difficult to leave, and impossible to forget.
Some people come into our lives and quickly go. Others leave footprints on our hearts, and we are never ever the same.
"We started out as a full circle and when we starved to be like the gods, they punished us and struck us right down dead center in half. Since then, we spend the rest of our lives wandering and searching the earth for our other half. When we find our other half, the circle is complete again and we are whole."
You know you love someone when you want them to be happy even if their happiness means that you aren't a part of it.
Tears are like kisses, the only real ones are the ones you can't hold back.
"I have lost friends, some by death...others by sheer inability to cross the street."
"I think we dream so we don't have to be apart so long. If we're in each others dreams, we can be together all the time."
"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 everything, you risk even more."
"You really shouldn't say "I LOVE YOU" unless you mean it. But if you mean it, you should say it a lot. People forget."
"All of our young lives we search for someone to love, someone who makes us complete. We choose partners and change partners. We dance to a song of heartbreak and hope, all the while wondering if somewhere and somehow there is someone searching for us."
"Turns out not where but who you're with that really maters."
"We are not the same persons this year as last; nor are those we love. It is a happy chance if we, changing, continue to love a changed person."
"God determines who walks into your life. It's up to you to decide who you let walk away, who you let stay, and who you refuse to let go."
"A successful marriage requires falling in love many times, always with the same person."
