Love Quotes Quote by Leo Tolstoy, Anna Karenina — Inspiring Words on Life, Love & Wisdom

“He was afraid of defiling the love which filled his soul.”

“If you love me as you say you do,' she whispered, 'make it so that I am at peace.”

“He looked at her as a man might look at a faded flower he had plucked, in which it was difficult for him to trace the beauty that had made him pick and so destroy it”

““I think... if it is true that”

““Love. The reason I dislike that word is that it means too much for me, far more than you can understand."”

“He stepped down, avoiding any long look at her as one avoids long looks at the sun, but seeing her as one sees the sun, without looking.”

“I want him to see the flowers in my eyes and hear the songs in my hands.”

““—I don't want to lose you”

“..."better to have loved and lost" bullshit. Don't show me paradise and then burn it down.”

“Mothers and their children are in a category all their own. There's no bond so strong in the entire world. No love so instantaneous and forgiving.”

“You know I meant it. I am human. And male. And not remotely blind. Do you want me to say it again? You are distractingly, even if-that-is-not-a-real-word pretty. You are so pretty that I bullied Clay Whitaker into drawing me a picture of you so I could look at you when you aren't around. You are so pretty that one of these days I'm going to lose a finger in my garage because I can't concentrate with you so close to me. You are so pretty that I wish you weren't so I wouldn't want to hit every guy at school who looks at you, especially my best friend.”
