Amour is the one human activity of any importance in which laughter and pleasure preponderate, if ever so slightly, over misery and pain.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
It's the pursuit of love and happiness that is the driving force of the romantic novel.
Love is an act of endless forgiveness, a tender look which becomes a habit.
Love is the capacity to take care, to protect, to nourish.
Every one of our passions and affections hath its natural stint and bound, which may easily be exceeded; whereas our enjoyments can possibly be but in a determinate measure and degree.
Sensual pleasures have the fleeting brilliance of a comet; a happy marriage has the tranquillity of a lovely sunset.
The joys of friendship inert the heart and fizzy home bouncing jubilantly with laughter-buttered love.
There's a lot of talk about the positive aspects of love. We as a society downplay the danger, the anxiety, and the disappointment. We romanticize romance.
The curse of the romantic is a greed for dreams, an intensity of expectation that, in the end, diminishes the reality.
The anger of lovers renews their love.
Love always, in one way or another, means pain as well as joy.
