Love Quotes Quote by F. Scott Fitzgerald, The Great Gatsby — Inspiring Words on Life, Love & Wisdom

“I wasn't actually in love, but I felt a sort of tender curiosity.”

“Love is not a consequence. Love is not a choice. Love is a thirst. A need as vital to the soul as water is to the body. Love is a precious draught that not only soothes a parched throat, but it vitalizes a man. It fortifies him enough that he is willing to slay dragons for the woman who offers it. Take that draught of love from me and I will shrivel to dust. To take it from a man dying of thirst and give it to another whilst he watches is a cruelty I never thought you capable of.”

“It ought to make us feel ashamed when we talk like we know what we're talking about when we talk about love.”

“There could have been no two hearts so open, no tastes so similar, no feelings so in unison”

“The world is indeed full of peril, and in it there are many dark places; but still there is much that is fair, and though in all lands love is now mingled with grief, it grows perhaps the greater.”

“Heartbreak is a loss. Divorce is a piece of paper.”
