Love is not a consequence. Love is not a choice. Love is a thirst. A need as vital to the soul as water is to the body. Love is a precious draught that not only soothes a parched throat, but it vitalizes a man. It fortifies him enough that he is willing to slay dragons for the woman who offers it. Take that draught of love from me and I will shrivel to dust. To take it from a man dying of thirst and give it to another whilst he watches is a cruelty I never thought you capable of. Colleen Houck
About This Quote

Love is not something that you choose. The reality of love is that it is a spontaneous feeling that arises from deep within the soul. It is not something that you can control, but rather something that no one can control. Love can be easily lost, but also easily found. The best way to find love is to give it freely.
