Most people define love as a feeling or emotion. But in reality, there’s more to it and to express it here are some romantic love quotes for Valentine’s Day, enjoy!
We all are ready to accept that love makes the world go round. So there are some of the best love quotes that capture the depth and meaning of love and what you really feel for your significant other.
And these love quotes are for you to admit that you have all been in love, at least once in your lifetime – completely passionately, unwarrantedly, inexplicably in love. But sure as hell, you find no appropriate words to describe how exactly you feel for the person who, ever-so-mysteriously stole your heart.
The three magical words have an exclusive charm to them, but they cannot encompass the true essence of love. Sometimes even poets fail to pen down what love makes them feel like, and for hopeless romantics like us, it’s an almost unachievable feat.
So we end up taking a resort to the words of the world’s greatest poets, philosophers, artists, musicians, and authors to express the enchanting feeling through quotes about love.
While one can always tell one’s partner “I love you to the moon and back.” but being able to find the perfect words to express one’s deepest affection for one’s partner is downright amazing.
Worry not, ‘cause we have here a compilation of 105+ best love quotes that will help you make her/him feel cared for, loved and special.
(Do not leave a chance to tell your romantic interest, how they complete you, through these heartwarming love quotes.)
Being In Love Quotes To Express Love Better Than Saying ‘I Love You’

3. What True Love Is!
I don’t think most people understand what true love is. It’s not the cheesy “couple goals” posts for Instagram. It’s not the fancy dates, the happy hours, or the majestic nights laughing at silly movies. True love is waking up in the middle of the night to help you when you’re sick because I don’t want you to be sick alone.
It’s being your shoulder to cry on, to vent to. True love is being your biggest cheerleader and toughest critic. True love is looking at each other on a spiritual level, a level so deep, that you can feel them when they’re gone. True love is six little words, “no matter what, I got you.”
– Sylvester Menutt
4. Love is eternal.
“I will follow you, my love, to the edge of all our days, to our very last tomorrows.”
