One could fall in love many times during the course of a lifetime, but the first rush of love always holds a special place in our hearts. The novelty of the feeling, like the first drops of dew on an untouched leaf, makes it special and unforgettable. The "first love" quotes below develop on the theme of this treasured rush called first love.
George Bernard Shaw
First love is a little foolish and a lot of curiosity.
Branislav Nusic
First love is dangerous only when it is also the last.
Rosemary Rogers
First romance, first love, is something so special to all of us, both emotionally and physically, that it touches our lives and enriches them forever.
Benjamin Disraeli
The magic of first love is our ignorance that it can never end.
Thomas Moore
No, there's nothing half so sweet in life as love's young dream.
Alfred Lord Tennyson
In the spring a livlier iris changes on the burnished dove;
In the spring a young man's fancy lightly turns to thoughts of love.
Leo Buscaglia
Love is always bestowed as a gift - freely, willingly, and without expectation... We don't love to be loved; we love to love.
Blaise Pascal
We conceal it from ourselves in vain: we must always love something. In those matters seemingly removed from love, the feeling is secretly to be found, and man cannot possibly live for a moment without it.
Nietzsche
Love is the state in which man sees things; most widely different from what they are.
William Shakespeare
As sweet and musical
As bright Apollo's lute, strung with his hair;
And when Love speaks, the voice of all the gods
Makes heaven drowsy with the harmony.
Lady Murasaki
The memories of long love gather like drifting snow, poignant as the mandarin ducks who float side by side in sleep.
Leo Buscaglia
The heart is the place where we live our passions. It is frail and easily broken, but wonderfully resilient. There is no point in trying to deceive the heart. It depends upon our honesty for its survival.
Richard Garnett
Sweet are the words of love, sweeter his thoughts:
Sweetest of all what love nor says nor thinks.
The loving are the daring.
Bayard Taylor
