Famous quotes containing the word love:
“In love and friendship the imagination is as much exercised as the heart; and if either is outraged the other will be estranged. It is commonly the imagination which is wounded first, rather than the heart,—it is so much the more sensitive.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
“There would have to be something wrong with someone who could throw out a child’s first Valentine card saying, “I love you, Mommy.””
—Ginger Hutton (20th century)
“Mother love has been much maligned. An over mothered boy may go through life expecting each new woman to love him the way his mother did. Her love may make any other love seem inadequate. But an unloved boy would be even more likely to idealize love. I don’t think it’s possible for a mother or father to love a child too much.

—Frank Pittman (20th century)
