My girlfriend Yasmin asked me to help her find inspirational quotes, in English which she’ll translate to Spanish, for her to tattoo on her wrist, so it will serve as a daily reminder. I asked her what she wanted the quote to be about and she said something about “Working harder and finishing the things she started.” I told her that when she’s 100 years old on her death-bed, she’s not going to wish she had worked harder. She’ll wish she had loved more. So, I’m looking for quotes about love, and I found these gems:
“Love is everything it’s cracked up to be. That’s why people are so cynical about it…It really is worth fighting for, risking everything for. And the trouble is, if you don’t risk everything, you risk even more.” – Erica Jong
“The best and most beautiful things in the world cannot be seen or even touched. They must be felt with the heart.” – Helen Keller
“The more I give to thee, the more I have.” – William Shakespeare
“I am in love – and, my God, it is the greatest thing that can happen to a man. I tell you, find a woman you can fall in love with. Do it. Let yourself fall in love. If you have not done so already, you are wasting your life.” – D. H. Lawrence
“The most wasted day is that in which we have not laughed.” – Chamfort
“Love doesn’t make the world go ’round. Love is what makes the ride worthwhile.” – Franklin P. Jones
“The love we give away is the only love we keep.” – Elbert Hubbard
“There is no remedy for love but to love more.” – Henry David Thoreau
“If you live to be a hundred, I want to live to be a hundred minus one day so I never have to live without you.” – A. A. Milne
“Once in a while, right in the middle of an ordinary life, love gives us a fairy tale.” – anonymous
