Let those love now who never loved before,
Let those that always loved now love the more.
—Parnell.
Love rules the court, the camp, the grove,
And men below, and saints above;
For love is heaven, and heaven is love.
—Scott.
If thou neglectest thy love to thy neighbor, in vain thou professest thy love to God; for by thy love to God the love to thy neighbor is begotten, and by the love to thy neighbor, thy love to God is nourished.—Quarles.
Love's like the measles—all the worse when it comes late in life.—Jerrold.
Love is strong as death. Many waters cannot quench love, neither can the floods drown it: if a man would give all the substance of his house for love, it would utterly be contemned.—Song of Solomon 8:6 and 7.
Love is the fulfilling of the law.—Romans 13:10.
Love's sweetest meanings are unspoken; the full heart knows no rhetoric of words.—Bovee.
A woman is more considerate in affairs of love than a man; because love is more the study and business of her life.—Washington Irving.
Love, it has been said, flows downward. The love of parents for their children has always been far more powerful than that of children for their parents; and who among the sons of men ever loved God with a thousandth part of the love which God has manifested to us?—Hare.
It is better to desire than to enjoy, to love than to be loved.—Hazlitt.
