Love Quotes

Love and romanticism have persisted as a theme throughout written human history. Whether in fiction or documentary love has been the pillar that some of the greatest stories and fables have been based upon. The commonality of this theme in human history and stories is because of the universality of love and romance. Regardless of nationality, religion or race love is something that can be found in the stories and history of every people. And it is from these stories that love quotes are picked from. But of course it is not only from stories that romantic quotes originate from, but is it also from speeches, poetry, letters, notes, and almost anything else comprised of words.

Famous love quotes are some of the most popular famous quotations and also provide to their admirers some of the most flowery language in literature. Some of the most famous of these love quotes come from the preeminent master of love and poetry, William Shakespeare. Here, instead of quoting one of the better known quotes we'll instead opt for a piece from 'All's Well That Ends Well': 'Love all, trust a few. Do wrong to none.' Along the same lines of relative obscurity, let's quote Mencken, 'Love is the triumph of imagination over intelligence.'

The above two famous quotes are only two of the numerous sayings and love quotes which grace out index of quotations. We have attempted to keep this list of love quotes short by picking the ones we've loved and identified with the most. But if you happen to have a suggestion or two, please feel free to contact us.
