He who is filled with love is filled with God himself.

Augustine of Hippo

To love yourself right now, just as you are, is to give yourself heaven. Don't wait until you die. If you wait, you die now. If you love, you live now.

Alan Cohen

We don't get to choose our family, but we can choose our friends. With courage, we can weed out narcissistic people. We can focus on those who do appreciate us, love us, and treat us with respect.

Dana Arcuri

The love we give away is the only love we keep.

Elbert Hubbard

Love is, above all, the gift of oneself.

Jean Anouilh

Until you have a son of your own... you will never know the joy, the love beyond feeling that resonates in the heart of a father as he looks upon his son.
