All my life, my heart has yearned for a thing I cannot name.
All mankind love a lover.
All love shifts and changes. I don't know if you can be wholeheartedly in love all the time.
Affection is responsible for nine-tenths of whatever solid and durable happiness there is in our lives.
Absence diminishes mediocre passions and increases great ones, as the wind extinguishes candles and fans fires.
A woman knows the face of the man she loves as a sailor knows the open sea.
A very small degree of hope is sufficient to cause the birth of love.
A pair of powerful spectacles has sometimes sufficed to cure a person in love.
A man reserves his true and deepest love not for the species of woman in whose company he finds himself electrified and enkindled, but for that one in whose company he may feel tenderly drowsy.
A loving heart is the beginning of all knowledge.
