Valentine's Day: Love Quotes

Hi everyone,

Every so often I see quotes appear up on Instagram, Facebook and more. Sometimes they are lovely and other times I scroll right past them because either they are rude or cheeky or they are in the wrong context.

But when I see ones that show how gracious and amazing love can be, my heart warms. That cosy warm feeling. When you get butterflies in your tummy. I love that feeling.

Here is just a sampling of our favourite love quotes:

1. 1 Corinthians 13: 4-8 (ESV): 'Love is patient and kind; love does not envy or boast; it is not arrogant or rude. It does not insist on its own way; it is not irritable or resentful; it does not rejoice at wrongdoing, but rejoices with the truth. Love bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things. Love never ends.'

2. Aristotle: 'Love is composed of a single soul inhabiting two bodies.'

3. From the film 'The Wedding Date' quoted by Nick (Dermot Mulroney): 'I think I'd miss you even if we never met.'

4. Leo Tolstoy: 'When you love someone, you love the person as they are, and not as you'd like them to be.'

5. Arrigo Boito: 'When I saw you I fell in love, and you smiled because you knew.'

6. EE Cummings: 'You are my sun, my moon and all my stars.'

7. Alfred Tennyson: 'If I had a flower for every time I thought of you... I could walk though my garden forever.'

8. Nicholas Sparks: 'Love is like the wind, you can't see it but you can feel it.'
