Literature is full of our favorite characters, worlds, creatures, fantasies, and, most memorably, quotes. And some quotes ring deeper than others.
Love quotes from the heart of our favorite (or least favorite) characters resonate deep within our own hearts. These quotes are the words we often struggle to find, but somehow these great authors have captured an indescribable feeling on pages that we can revisit and love forever.
Here are my top picks for the best literary love quotes of all time. Yes, some are cheesy, and no they aren't all from classic literature, but they're still going to make you swoon.
"In vain I have struggled. It will not do. My feelings will not be repressed. You must allow me to tell you how ardently I admire and love you."David Copperfield by Charles Dickens
"She was more than human to me. She was a Fairy, a Sylph, I don't know what she was - anything that no one ever saw, and everything that everybody ever wanted. I was swallowed up in an abyss of love in an instant. There was no pausing on the brink; no looking down, or looking back; I was gone, headlong, before I had sense to say a word to her."Winnie the Pooh by A. A. Milne
"If you live to be a hundred, I want to live to be a hundred minus one day, so I never have to live without you."The Fault in Our Stars by John Green
"... I fell in love the way you fall asleep: slowly, and then all at once."Eleanor & Park by Rainbow Rowell
"Eleanor was right: She never looked nice. She looked like art, and art wasn't supposed to look nice; it was supposed to make you feel something."Hamlet by William Shakespeare
"Doubt thou the stars are fire; Doubt that the sun doth move; Doubt truth to be a liar; But never doubt I love."The White Company by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle
"You are my heart, my life, my one and only thought."The Notebook by Nicholas Sparks
"I am nothing special; just a common man with common thoughts, and I've led a common life. There are no monuments dedicated to me and my name will soon be forgotten. But in one respect I have succeeded as gloriously as anyone who's ever lived: I've loved another with all my heart and soul; and to me, this has always been enough."100 Years of Solitude by Gabriel García Márquez
"It's enough for me to be sure that you and I exist at this moment."Atonement by Ian McEwan
"I love you. I believe in you completely. You are my dearest one, my reason for life."
