You can't love anything more than something you miss.

"My great hope is to laugh as much as I cry, to get my work done, and try to love somebody and have the courage to accept the love in return."
--Maya Angelou

"There isn't anyone you couldn't love once you've heard their story."
--Mary Lou Kownacki, Mr. Rogers' favorite quote

"She wants to know if I love her, that's all anyone wants from anyone else, not love itself but the knowledge that love is there, like new batteries in the flashlight in the emergency kit in the hall closet."
--Jonathan Safran Foer

"It's the tragedy of loving, you can't love anything more than something you miss."
--Jonathan Safran Foer

"Love? Be it man. Be it woman. It must be a wave you want to glide in on, give your body to it, give your laugh to it, give, when the gravelly sand takes you, your tears to the land. To love another is something like prayer and can't be planned, you just fall into its arms because your belief undoes your disbelief."
--Anne Sexton
