-Bible "1 Corinthians 13:5"
You yourself, as much as anybody in the entire universe, deserve your love and affection.
-Gautama Buddha "Gautama Buddha"

-Sigmund Freud
Love is possible only step by step. If one loves himself, then only can he love
people around him and only if he loves people around him, can he fall in love
with the entire mankind... But some people directly fall in love with stones and
animals. Difficult to understand, as to who are they trying to deceive?
-Deep Trivedi
Love is the irresistible desire to be irresistibly desired.
-Mark Twain
As selfishness and complaint pervert the mind, so love with its joy clears and sharpens the vision.
-Helen Keller
To love and win is the best thing. To love and lose, the next best.
-William Thackeray
