"It's so curious: one can resist tears and 'behave' very well in the hardest hours of grief. But then someone makes you a friendly sign behind a window, or one notices that a flower that was in bud only yesterday has suddenly blossomed, or a letter slips from a drawer... and everything collapses."

"Every atom of your flesh is as dear to me as my own: in pain and sickness it would still be dear."

"It’s dark now and I am very tired. I love you, always. Time is nothing."

"If you can capture a woman's imagination, then you will have her. But imagination is a strange creature. It needs time and distance to function properly."

"Love and compassion are necessities, not luxuries. Without them, humanity cannot survive."

"Wherever you will go, I will let you down, But this lullaby goes on."

"Snape's patronus was a doe,' said Harry, 'the same as my mother's because he loved her for nearly all of his life, from when they were children."

"With him, life was routine; without him, life was unbearable."

"I want morning and noon and nightfall with you. I want your tears, your smiles, your kisses...the smell of your hair, the taste of your skin, the touch of your breath on my face. I want to see you in the final hour of my life...to lie in your arms as I take my last breath."

"Unless you love someone, nothing else makes sense."

"I think we ought to live happily ever after."

"If a girl starts out all casual with a guy and she doesn't tell him that she wants a relationship, it will never become a relationship. If you give the guy the impression that casual is okay with you, that's all he'll ever want. Be straight with him from the start. If he gets scared and runs away, he wasn't right for you."

"I don't want to lose you.' His voice almost a whisper. Seeing his haggard expression, she took his hand and squeezed it, then reluctantly let it go. She could feel the tears again, and she fought them back. 'But you don't want to keep me, either, do you?' To that, he had no response."

"When you love someone, you say their name different. Like it's safe inside your mouth."

"Anyone who loves in the expectation of being loved in return is wasting their time."

"He is beauty, inside and out.He is the silver lining in a world of darkness.He is my light."

"There's a difference between really loving someone and loving the idea of her."

"I think it is all a matter of love the more you love a memory the stronger and stranger it becomes"

"In real life, love has to be possible. Even if it is not returned right away, love can only survive when the hope exists that you will be able to win over the person you desire."

"Do I love you? My God, if your love were a grain of sand, mine would be a universe of beaches."

"The great tragedy of life is not that men perish, but that they cease to love."

"Because, if you could love someone, and keep loving them, without being loved back . . . then that love had to be real. It hurt too much to be anything else."
