Ferdinand Marcos – “I don’t believe in courtship. It’s a waste of time. If I love the person, I’ll tell her right
away. But for you, I’ll make an exception. Just love me now, and I’ll court you forever.”

Courtship becomes tradition here in the Philippines. It is the best part of a girls romance and love life.
We already heard about the whirlwind romance between Ferdinand and Imelda that they got married
after an 11-day courtship. Although it is not impossible, it is still surprising how a romantic
relationship could blossom that quick. Imelda Marcos was so lucky with Ferdinand Marcos. If you love
someone, tell them right away. Ferdinand Marcos believes that courtship before you become a lover
is just a waste of time. Just love him and he will court you forever.
Efren Peñaflorida – “Never compare your love story to those you watch in movies. They’re written by
scriptwriters, yours is written by God.”

I really love watching love stories from movies especially when it comes to Nicholas Spark novels but
love stories from books and movies that we’re watching is most likely came to the minds of the
writers—pure imagination. That is why, we must not compare ourselves in their scenario because our
future is in God's hands. He is the way, the truth, and the life.

Helen Keller – “Love is like a beautiful flower which I may not touch, but whose fragrance makes the
garden a place of delight just the same.”

Love is even you can’t touch your love ones it’s still worth it as long as your relationship is healthy,
and you can see her/him it is still feels the same. That’s enough to make your day happy and delight.

Mahatma Gandhi – “Where there is love, there is life.”

This quote means that love able to give the will to live when things get wrong. Love is the fuel that
gives us life. The fuel that gives us hope and strength in order to live. When people are in love, they
see things gets brighter and clearer. Love is the power of the Universe, and everything is alive through
an inexplicable power that could be called, ultimately, love. Feeling, projecting, and giving love in any
direction changes things.
Lao Tzu – “Being deeply loved by someone gives you strength while loving someone deeply gives you
courage.”

So, loving deeply gives you the strength to be a better, more loving partner—the best you can be.
Deep love is seeing someone at their most vulnerable, often lowest point, and reaching out your hand
to help them get back up. Because deep love is selfless. It's realizing there's someone out there that
you don't think twice about caring for. And being loved deeply by your partner gives you courage to
be vulnerable with him/her, and to allow that love in more fully every day. It's a never-ending cycle
that leads to more and more love.
Vincent Van Gogh – “Love many things, for therein lies the true strength, and whosoever loves much
performs much and can accomplish much, and what is done in love is done well.”

You do all for the person you love. You go out of your way to love them, be their need, care for them,
nurture them. You love them. You give your energy to them. Life is not easy despite that you give your
energy to those you love and make their life easy. This is the purest form of human emotion that
could ever exist. The more you love others the more you will have the zeal for life. No human can love
them self alone. When in love you think for others and do for others. You go out of your comfort zone
and work hard for your loved ones. You accomplish much more; your luck favors you when you do for
others. Because your pure intention is to make their life easy. So, love everybody in this world. Love is
life. Love is not just men women thing. Love is for everybody.

Maya Angelou – “Love knows no barriers.”

It jumps hurdles, leaps fences, penetrates walls to arrive at its destination full of hope. It says a lot
about love for another person or for a cause. When you figure out what you love doing, you will be
well on your way to developing your clarity of purpose.

Julia Roberts – “You know it’s love when all you want is that person to be happy even if you’re not part
of their happiness.”

Love is that condition in which the happiness of another person is essential to your own. Jealousy is a
disease; love is a healthy condition. The abridged version of the quote emphasizes that you have
some flavor of love in you when you cannot be happy when someone else is not.
