1.
Love
is
not
a
mere
sentiment
but
an
act
of
will
that
consists
of
choosing
to
place
the
welfare
of
others
above
one's
own
desires.
【Tolstoy
on
Love】
2.
The
true
measure
of
love
is
not
how
much
we
give
or
receive,
but
how
much
we
sacrifice
for
the
sake
of
others.
【Tolstoy
on
Love】
3.
Love
is
the
force
that
binds
people
together,
that
unites
them
in
a
common
purpose,
and
that
gives
meaning
to
life.
【Tolstoy
on
Love】
4.
True
love
is
not
based
on
physical
attraction
or
emotional
infatuation,
but
on
the
mutual
respect,
understanding,
and
partnership
between
two
people.
【Tolstoy
on
Love】
5.
Love
is
not
just
a
feeling,
but
a
decision
to
commit
oneself
to
another
person
and
to
persevere
through
the
challenges
of
life
together.
【Tolstoy
on
Love】
6.
Love
is
the
foundation
of
all
human
relationships,
and
it
is
through
love
that
we
find
the
courage
to
grow,
to
change,
and
to
become
our
best
selves.
【Tolstoy
on
Love】
7.
Love
is
patient,
kind,
and
humble,
and
it
does
not
seek
to
dominate
or
control
others
but
to
serve
them
with
selflessness
and
compassion.
【Tolstoy
on
Love】
8.
True
love
is
not
possessive
or
jealous,
but
it
is
confident,
secure,
and
trusting,
knowing
that
the
other
person's
happiness
is
just
as
important
as
one's
own.
【Tolstoy
on
Love】
9.
Love
is
not
just
about
finding
the
right
person,
but
about
being
the
right
person,
one
who
is
willing
to
learn,
to
grow,
and
to
give
of
oneself
for
the
sake
of
love.
【Tolstoy
on
Love】
10.
Love
is
not
a
commodity
that
can
be
bought
or
sold,
nor
is
it
a
game
that
one
can
win
or
lose,
but
it
is
a
gift
that
must
be
freely
given
and
received.
【Tolstoy
on
Love】
11.
Love
requires
forgiveness,
understanding,
and
compassion,
and
it
is
through
these
qualities
that
we
can
overcome
our
differences
and
find
true
unity
with
one
another.
【Tolstoy
on
Love】
12.
Love
is
not
just
a
source
of
joy
and
pleasure,
but
it
is
also
a
source
of
pain
and
sacrifice,
requiring
us
to
give
up
our
own
desires
for
the
sake
of
the
one
we
love.
【Tolstoy
on
Love】
13.
Love
is
not
about
being
perfect
or
flawless,
but
it
is
about
accepting
one
another
as
we
are,
with
all
our
strengths
and
weaknesses,
and
supporting
each
other
to
become
better.
【Tolstoy
on
Love】
14.
True
love
is
not
selfish
or
self-serving,
but
it
is
generous,
compassionate,
and
self-sacrificing,
seeking
the
good
of
others
above
all
else.
【Tolstoy
on
Love】
15.
Love
is
not
just
a
feeling
that
comes
and
goes,
but
it
is
a
commitment
that
lasts
a
lifetime,
through
the
highs
and
the
lows,
the
joys
and
the
sorrows.
【Tolstoy
on
Love】
16.
Love
is
not
just
for
the
young
or
the
beautiful,
but
it
is
for
everyone,
regardless
of
age,
appearance,
or
status,
because
it
is
the
essence
of
our
humanity.
【Tolstoy
on
Love】
17.
Love
is
not
a
finite
resource
that
needs
to
be
rationed,
but
it
is
an
infinite
wellspring
that
can
be
shared
by
all,
bringing
joy
and
comfort
to
those
who
give
and
receive
it.
【Tolstoy
on
Love】
18.
True
love
is
not
about
finding
someone
who
completes
us,
but
about
learning
to
find
fulfillment
within
ourselves
and
sharing
that
with
another
person.
【Tolstoy
on
Love】
19.
Love
is
not
just
a
romantic
ideal,
but
it
is
a
practical
virtue
that
can
transform
our
world,
making
it
a
better,
more
compassionate,
and
just
place
for
all.
【Tolstoy
on
Love】
20.
Love
is
not
about
possessing
or
controlling
another
person,
but
it
is
about
setting
them
free
to
be
who
they
are,
to
grow,
to
explore,
and
to
find
their
own
way
in
life,
with
our
support
and
encouragement.
