My love is like agape and not Eros.

— Debasish Mridha

[On what young husbands should say to their wives:] I have taken you in my arms, and I love you, and I prefer you to my life itself. For the present life is nothing, and my most ardent dream is to spend it with you in such a way that we may be assured of not being separated in the life reserved for us... I place your love above all things, and nothing would be more bitter or painful to me than to be of a different mind than you.

— John Chrysostom

Parents were the only ones obligated to love you from the rest of the world you had to earn it.

— Ann Brashares

Shine your soul with the same egoless humility as the rainbow and no matter where you go in this world or the next, love will find you, attend you, and bless you.

— Aberjhani

The only way love can last a lifetime is if it's unconditional. The truth is this: love is not determined by the one being loved but rather by the one choosing to love.

— Stephen Kendrick

There must be a stronger foundation than mere friendship or sexual attraction. Unconditional love, agape love, will not be swayed by time or circumstances.

— Stephen Kendrick

They'll say you are bad or perhaps you are major at least you should stay undercover. Your mind must be barf you would dart think you can love more than one lover.

— David Rovics

This is the secret of life: the self lives only by dying, finds its identity (and its happiness) only by self-forgetfulness, self-giving, self-sacrifice, and agape love.

— Peter Kreeft

We do not measure the value of a person by their outward appearance, rank, or creed, rather by the sum of the agape in their heart. Your value in the cosmos is greater than precious metals or jewels, humans have too potential to take us all into a period of great enlightenment, or to our ruin. The choice is yours.

— Guy T. Simpson Jr.

When one has once fully entered the realm of love, the world — no matter how imperfect — becomes rich and beautiful, it consists solely of opportunities for love.

— Søren Kierkegaard
