I have to admit, an unrequited love is so much better than a real one. I mean, it's perfect... As long as something is never even started, you never have to worry about it ending. It has endless potential.

In the garden, the Captain of the Guard stared up at the young woman's balcony, watching as she waltzed alone, lost in her dreams. But he knew her thoughts weren't of him.

You know, when it works, love is pretty amazing. It's not overrated. There's a reason for all those songs.

No relationship is perfect, ever. There are always some ways you have to bend, to compromise, to give something up in order to gain something greater...The love we have for each other is bigger than these small differences. And that's the key. It's like a big pie chart, and the love in a relationship has to be the biggest piece. Love can make up for a lot.

Love is needing someone. Love is putting up with someone's bad qualities because they somehow complete you.

There is never a time or place for true love. It happens accidentally, in a heartbeat, in a single flashing, throbbing moment.
