| Vincent Van Gogh | "Love is something eternal; the aspect may change, but not the essence." |
| Henry Ward Beecher | "Young love is a flame; very pretty, often very hot and fierce, but still only light and flickering. The love of the older and disciplined heart is as coals, deep-burning, unquenchable." |
| Gilbert K. Chesterton | "The way to love anything is to realize that it might be lost." |
| Johann Wolfgang Von Goethe | "That is the true season of love; when we believe that we alone can love, that no one could ever have loved as much before, and that no one will ever love in the same way again." |
| Virginia Woolf | "For love... has two faces; one white, the other black; two bodies; one smooth, the other hairy. It has two hands, two feet, two tails, two, indeed, of every member and each one is the exact opposite of the other. Yet, so strictly are they joined together" |
