She loved him, more than she could ever find words for, but this love he felt for her was not quite the same. It wasn't so much stronger, as more demanding, more insistent. As though he feared he would lose that which he had finally won.

About This Quote

This quote shows that love is a powerful thing and can take many forms. Sometimes it is very easy to fall in love with someone, but not understand how it really feels. Love can be both sweet and painful at the same time. Love can make you want to give up on life and make you feel like you cannot live without the person you love.

Love can make you feel like there is no end to what you will do for the person you love. Love is like fire, it burns brightly, but can also cause intense pain if not handled correctly.
