Quotes about Love
From the Movies
Quotes about love from the movies resonate with me. I’ve been a movie addict ever since when I was a young girl who spent 10 cents to see movies playing at our local church auditorium on Saturday afternoons. Romantic comedies are my favorite type of movie these days. I realized that they also impart great wisdom from their characters when it comes to the true meaning of love. I have collected some of these gems and share them with you now.

“We’re meant to lose the people we love. How else are we supposed to know how important they are?” – Mrs. Maple, “The Curious Case of Benjamin Button”
“Rose, you’re no picnic, all right? You’re a spoiled little brat, even, but under that, you’re the most amazingly, astounding, wonderful girl, woman that I’ve ever known.” Jack, Titanic
“I wonder how many people never get the one they want, but end up with the one they’re supposed to have.” – Fried Green Tomatoes

“Here’s a soldier of the South who loves you, Scarlett. Wants to feel your arms around him, wants to carry the memory of your kisses into battle with him. Never mind about loving me, you’re a woman sending a soldier to his death with a beautiful memory. Scarlett! Kiss me! Kiss me… once…” – Rhett Butler, “Gone With the Wind”
She’ll Only Break Your Heart
“She’ll only break your heart, it’s a fact. And even though I warn you, even though I guarantee you that the girl will only hurt you terribly, you’ll still pursue her. Ain’t love grand?” – Ms. Nora Digger Dinsmoor, “Great Expectations”

“Me? I’m scared of everything. I’m scared of what I saw, of what I did, of who I am… but most of all, I’m scared of walking out of this room and never feeling the rest of my whole life, the way I feel when I’m with you.” – “Dirty Dancing”

“If you love someone you say it, you say it right then, out loud. Otherwise the moment just… passes you by…” – “My Best Friend’s Wedding”
“I have made the most important discovery of my career – the most important discovery of my life. It is only in the mysterious equations of love that any logic or reason can be found.
