    Hafez
    “And still, after all this time,
    The sun never says to the earth,
    "You owe Me."

    Look what happens with
    A love like that,
    It lights the Whole Sky.”
    Hafiz

    Lauren Kate
    “Sometimes beautiful things come into our lives out of nowhere. We can't always understand them, but we have to trust in them. I know you want to question everything, but sometimes it pays to just have a little faith.”
    Lauren Kate, Torment

    Bob Marley
    “Only once in your life, I truly believe, you find someone who can completely turn your world around. You tell them things that you’ve never shared with another soul and they absorb everything you say and actually want to hear more. You share hopes for the future, dreams that will never come true, goals that were never achieved and the many disappointments life has thrown at you. When something wonderful happens, you can’t wait to tell them about it, knowing they will share in your excitement. They are not embarrassed to cry with you when you are hurting or laugh with you when you make a fool of yourself. Never do they hurt your feelings or make you feel like you are not good enough, but rather they build you up and show you the things about yourself that make you special and even beautiful. There is never any pressure, jealousy or competition but only a quiet calmness when they are around. You can be yourself and not worry about what they will think of you because they love you for who you are. The things that seem insignificant to most people such as a note, song or walk become invaluable treasures kept safe in your heart to cherish forever. Memories of your childhood come back and are so clear and vivid it’s like being young again. Colours seem brighter and more brilliant. Laughter seems part of daily life where before it was infrequent or didn’t exist at all. A phone call or two during the day helps to get you through a long day’s work and always brings a smile to your face. In their presence, there’s no need for continuous conversation, but you find you’re quite content in just having them nearby. Things that never interested you before become fascinating because you know they are important to this person who is so special to you. You think of this person on every occasion and in everything you do. Simple things bring them to mind like a pale blue sky, gentle wind or even a storm cloud on the horizon. You open your heart knowing that there’s a chance it may be broken one day and in opening your heart, you experience a love and joy that you never dreamed possible. You find that being vulnerable is the only way to allow your heart to feel true pleasure that’s so real it scares you. You find strength in knowing you have a true friend and possibly a soul mate who will remain loyal to the end. Life seems completely different, exciting and worthwhile. Your only hope and security is in knowing that they are a part of your life.”
    Bob Marley

    Laurell K. Hamilton
    “I will love you always. When this red hair is white, I will still love you. When the smooth softness of youth is replaced by the delicate softness of age, I will still want to touch your skin. When your face is full of the lines of every smile you have ever smiled, of every surprise I have seen flash through your eyes, when every tear you have ever cried has left its mark upon your face,I will treasure you all the more, because I was there to see it all. I will share your life with you, Meredith, and I will love you until the last breath leaves your body or mine.”
    Laurell K. Hamilton, A Lick of Frost

    Steve Maraboli
    “I want to be in a relationship where you telling me you love me is just a ceremonious validation of what you already show me.”
    Steve Maraboli, Life, the Truth, and Being Free

  • #7
    Jeanette Winterson
    “You’ll get over it…” It’s the clichés that cause the trouble. To lose someone you love is to alter your life for ever. You don’t get over it because ‘it” is the person you loved. The pain stops, there are new people, but the gap never closes. How could it? The particularness of someone who mattered enough to grieve over is not made anodyne by death. This hole in my heart is in the shape of you and no-one else can fit it. Why would I want them to?”
    Jeanette Winterson, Written on the Body

  • #8
    “I’ve been fighting to be who I am all my life. What’s the point of being who I am, if I can’t have the person who was worth all the fighting for?”
    Stephanie Lennox, I Don't Remember You

  • #9
    Fred Rogers
    “When I say it's you I like, I'm talking about that part of you that knows that life is far more than anything you can ever see or hear or touch. That deep part of you that allows you to stand for those things without which humankind cannot survive. Love that conquers hate, peace that rises triumphant over war, and justice that proves more powerful than greed.”
    Fred Rogers

    Gloria Naylor
    “The music in his laughter had a way of rounding off the missing notes in her soul.”
    Gloria Naylor, Linden Hills

    Mitch Albom
    “Love is how you stay alive, even after you are gone.”
    Mitch Albom

    Sarah Dessen
    “I knew, in the silence that followed, that anything could happen here. It might be too late: again, I might have missed my chance. But I would at least know I tried, that I took my heart and extended my hand, whatever the outcome.
    "Okay," he said. He took a breath. "What would you do, if you could do anything?"
    I took a step toward him, closing the space between us. "This," I said. And then I kissed him.”
    Sarah Dessen, The Truth About Forever

    John Green
    “I'll fight it. I'll fight it for you. Don't you worry about me, Hazel Grace. I'm okay. I'll find a way to hang around and annoy you for a long time.”
    John Green, The Fault in Our Stars

    Jarod Kintz
    “With my last breath, I’ll exhale my love for you. I hope it’s a cold day, so you can see what you meant to me.
”
    Jarod Kintz, This is the best book I've ever written, and it still sucks

    Cassandra Clare
    “If there's a thing I've learned in my life it's to not be afraid of the responsibility that comes with caring for other people. What we do for love: those things endure. Even if the people you do them for don't”
    Cassandra Clare

    Sylvia Plath
    “I have never found anybody who could stand to accept the daily demonstrative love I feel in me, and give back as good as I give.”
    Sylvia Plath, Journals of Sylvia Plath

  • #17
    Sylvia Plath
    “God, let me think clearly and brightly; let me live, love, and say it well in good sentences, let me someday see who I am.”
    Sylvia Plath, The Journals of Sylvia Plath

    Rainer Maria Rilke
    “Believe in a love that is being stored up for you like an inheritance, and have faith that in this love there is a strength and a blessing so large that you can travel as far as you wish without having to step outside it.”
    Rainer Maria Rilke, Letters to a Young Poet

  • #19
    Jeaniene Frost
    “If I die, I will wait for you, do you understand? No matter how long. I will watch from beyond to make sure you live every year you have to its fullest, and then we’ll have so much to talk about when I see you again… (Bones)”
    Jeaniene Frost

    Nicholas Sparks, The Choice

  • #21
    “I care," he said in a trembling voice. "I care so much that I do not know how to tell you without it seeming inconsequential compared to how I feel. Even if I am distant at times and seem as if I do not want to be with you, it is only because this scares me, too.”
    Aimee Carter, The Goddess Test

  • #22
    “And I also know that the way I feel about you isn't going to change just because the seasons do.”

    Veronica Roth
    “I belong to the people I love, and they belong to me--they, and the love and loyaty I give them, form my identity far more than any word or group ever could.”
    Veronica Roth, Allegiant

  • #25
    Mary Zimmerman

    Let me not outlive my own capacity to love.
    Let me die still loving, and so, never die.”

    Jandy Nelson
    “My sister will die over and over again for the rest of my life. Grief is forever. It doesn't go away; it becomes a part of you, step for step, breath for breath. I will never stop grieving Bailey because I will never stop loving her. That's just how it is. Grief and love are conjoined, you don't get one without the other. All I can do is love her, and love the world, emulate her by living with daring and spirit and joy.”
    Jandy Nelson, The Sky Is Everywhere

    Jandy Nelson
    “There once was a girl who found herself dead.
    She peered over the ledge of heaven
    and saw that back on earth
    her sister missed her too much,
    was way too sad,
    so she crossed some paths
    that would not have crossed,
    took some moments in her hand
    shook them up
    and spilled them like dice
    over the living world.
    It worked.
    The boy with the guitar collided
    with her sister.
    "There you go, Len," she whispered. "The rest is up to you.”
    Jandy Nelson, The Sky Is Everywhere

    Jandy Nelson
    “How will I survive this missing? How do others do it? People die all the time. Every day. Every hour. There are families all over the world staring at beds that are no longer slept in, shoes that are no longer worn. Families that no longer have to buy a particular cereal, a kind of shampoo. There are people everywhere standing in line at the movies, buying curtains, walking dogs, while inside, their hearts are ripping to shreds. For years. For their whole lives. I don't believe time heals. I don't want it to. If I heal, doesn't that mean I've accepted the world without her?”
    Jandy Nelson, The Sky Is Everywhere

    Jandy Nelson
    “That's exactly it—I am crazy sad, and somewhere deep inside, all I want is to fly.”
    Jandy Nelson, The Sky Is Everywhere

  • #31
    Jandy Nelson
    “Dreams change, yes, that makes sense, but I didn't know dreams could hide inside a person.”
    Jandy Nelson, The Sky Is Everywhere
