You may find my topic cheesy for you but majority of us in some ways are hopeless romantic.
There are so many quotes to mention but this one is what I choose because it reflects my views about love.
To love, is it Chance or Choice? When you meet the right person to love at the right place at the right time, that is Chance. When you meet someone you are attracted to, that is Chance too. Being caught that there are many people out there who are more attractive, smarter, richer than your mate and yet you decide to love your mate just the same, that is a Choice. Attraction comes to us by chance. But true love is truly a choice. Fate brings people together, but its still up to you two to make it happen. We may meet someone by chance, but loving and staying with that someone is still your choice.

"Love moves in mysterious ways"
Very mysterious, hard to understand why, so many questions the only thing you're sure of is you've loved.

God is love. Whoever lives in love lives in God, and God in him. In this way, love is made complete among us so that we will have confidence on the day of judgement, because in this world we are like Him. There is no fear in love. But perfect love drives out fear, because fear has to do with punishment. The one who fears is not made perfect in love. - 1 John 4:16-18

How about the choice? Do you have any? lolz..Sometimes people we attract to is not attracted to us..lolz..
So I think its the choice of that person not ours..lolz..

"Have you ever been in love? Horrible, isn't it? It makes you so vulnerable. It opens your chest and it opens up your heart and it means that someone can get inside you and mess you up. You build up all these defenses, you build up a whole suit of armor, so that nothing can hurt you, then one stupid person, no different from any other stupid person, wanders into your stupid life... You give them a piece of you. They didn't ask for it. They did something dumb one day, like kiss you or smile at you, and then your life isn't your own anymore. Love takes hostages. It gets inside you. It eats you out and leaves you crying in the darkness, so simple a phrase like, 'maybe we should be just friends,' turns into a glass splinter working its way into your heart. It hurts. Not just in the imagination. Not just in the mind. It's a soul-hurt, a real gets-inside-you-and-rips-you-apart-pain. I hate love."

Hey no matter how hurt you are, dont you ever felt happy when you are in-love? Most relationships fail not because of the absence of love. Love is always present its just that one loved too much and the other too little-Anon.

"What doesn't break me, will only make me stronger."
This is my favorite quote because it is from a Russian philosopher. I love this quote as it explains a lot of my experiences with love. Ever heartbreak I have gotten over, has made me stronger, and wiser, as I know what mistakes not to make the next time. It doesn't break me so it strengthens me. I have experienced so many bad times through love, that by the time I find the right one I will be able to get through anything.
