We ended up moving out to Texas. We live outside of Austin. We've got a couple horses, we've got three miniature donkeys, we've got four dogs. Miniature donkeys are very warm, loving animals. - Kyle Chandler Perhaps I had never had a grip on myself to start with, living life on cruise-control while I waited for a home that would never be mine. It would be warm. Loving. Wonderfully chaotic, occasionally tempestuous, but full of good intentions and laughter. It would be all of the great things embodied by your run-of-the-mill greeting card, and it was still the last thing that I thought of each night as I let myself believe for a moment or two that such things were possible. - Alice Yi Li Yeh

In every loving woman there is a priestess of the past - a pious guardian of some affection, of which the object has disappeared. - Henri Frederic Amiel I had a non-existent knowledge of Queen Victoria's early years. Like everyone else, I thought of her as an old lady dressed in black. My mom had told me about her, though, that she had a very loving relationship with Albert, that they had lots of kids, and that he died young. - Emily Blunt My parents were very loving, but disciplinarians. - Nadia Comaneci That's just my family's mentality. We are a very loving, hugging and kissing kind of family. And we grew up in a church atmosphere and still have that atmosphere. There is no negativity. - Eric Davis His wife had been wild about him at first; she had treated him with an amorous servility that had turned him against her all the more. Vivacious, effusive, and very loving in the early days, over the years she had, like a stale wine that turns to vinegar, grown ill-humour...

By dint of waiting, he hoped his heart would wear out and stop beating. What other way was there to stop loving someone? - Anne Laure Bondoux He wanted to take his love back from her so badly.

A love that is too strong can turn poisonous and bring great unhappiness. And then, what is the remedy? Can you unlearn your heart's desire? Can you stop loving someone? Easier to drown yourself; easier to take the lover's leap. - Alma Katsu

The moment that I realized that I wanted to be a better man for him and that because of him I was a better man than I was before I met him, that was when I realized that I loved him. No flaw that he had, no quirk could ever make me stop loving him and he knows that, so he's free to be himself and he's free to love me and because he loves me I'm free to be myself, knowing that no flaw that I have and no quirk could ever make him stop loving me. - Vicktor Alexander Do you think it's possible to do something so bad, even if you didn't mean to do it, that you can never come back from it?

As if I ...

Because two people in love don't make a hive mind. Neither should they want to be a hive mind, to think the same, to know the same. It's about being separate and still loving each other, being distinct from each other. One is the violin string one is the bow. - Graham Joyce Let me die the moment my love dies. Let me not outlive my own capacity to love. Let me die still loving, and so, never die. - Mary Zimmerman

All cowardice comes from not truly loving, or at least, not loving well. - Ernest Hemingway To love is to suffer. To avoid suffering one must not love. But then one suffers from not loving. Therefore, to love is to suffer; not to love is to suffer; to suffer is to suffer. To be happy is to love. To be happy, then, is to suffer, but suffering makes one unhappy. Therefore, to be happy one must love or love to suffer or suffer from too much happiness. - Woody Allen For there is merely bad luck in not being loved; there is misfortune in not loving. - Albert Camus Loving can cost a lot but not loving always costs more, and those who fear to love often find that want of love is an emptiness that robs the joy from life. - Merle Shain I want you to walk out of here tonight not loving me more, but loving yourselves more. - Lady Gaga Angel: And what will you do with the world, once it is yours?'

You, everything about you is beyond my wildest dreams. - Kristen Ashley How evanescent those loves and friendships seem at this distance in time...We move on, make new attachments. We grow old.

The most painful thing is losing yourself in the process of loving someone too much, and forgetting that you are special too. - Ernest Hemingway When I was younger, I used to think that loving someone meant being weak. I thought it meant giving yourself up and losing your identity, and becoming just an other to someone else. I thought that only those who weren't strong enough to stand on their own needed someone to lean on. I never realized that love is as much about giving strength as accepting it, and that love doesn't mean that you can't stand on your own, but only that now you can fly. - J Leigh Bralick The thing about loving someone, is that yelling at them only feels good while you're doing it -- as soon as they're gone, all you want to do is take it all back - Lauren Barnholdt Being in love was vastly different from loving someone.

In time, the hurt began to fade and it was easier to just let it go. At least I thought it was.

Bryn is the one who's been living with the ghost-the specter of a man who never stopped loving someone else. - Gayle Forman That idea is strange to me. People keep on loving? People keep on loving even if you are not there in their face everyday to remind them? People keep on loving even if they no longer see you at all? People keep on loving even if they are loving someone else? Impossible: to believe you can ...

I want to believe you, but if that's true, I just don't get it. Why does loving somebody mean you have to hurt them just as much? I mean, if that's the way it goes, what's the point of loving someone? - Haruki Murakami Why does loving somebody mean you have to hurt them just as much? I mean if that's the way it goes, what's the point of loving someone?

This only looks like love. - Chuck Palahniuk I thought we were a real love relationship. I did.

We are basically all one. We are one being, one consciousness, one whole. We are all connected to each other. We are all parts of the same whole. How we treat others are how we treat ourselves.

Loving ourselves works miracles in our lives. - Louise L Hay We cease loving ourselves if no one loves us. - Madame De Stael

I had short hair for a while, but I ended up loving it. - Tatyana Ali The world's a mean place. It's unfair, then it's fair. It's hateful, then it's loving. It's a very peculiar place on philosophical and metaphysical and religious levels. - Tim Allen The little island seemed to float on the dark lake-waters. Trees grew on it, and a little hill rose in the middle of it. It was a mysterious island, lonely and beautiful. All the children stood and gazed at it, loving it and longing to go to it.
