“I love being in love, but I also love other things, like not being jealous, overly sensitive, or needy.
”

“With the beautiful things I had discovered this summer, like loving and being loved, there was also the ugly truth that there was no such thing as perfect.-Loc 4755”

“The most important aspect of love is not in giving or the receiving: it's in the being. When I need love from others, or need to give love to others, I'm caught in an unstable situation. Being in love, rather than giving or taking love, is the only thing that provides stability. Being in love means seeing the Beloved all around me.”

“I guess I was better at loving then, too, and also better at being loved — the two go together.”

“Love is a wonderful thing. It makes life worthwhile. I love being in love.”

“This is what it means to be in the middle of love, I thought. Being in the middle of love is like being in the middle of a war zone.”
