I have a lot of favorite quotes, but this one is the one I love most<br /> Dominic Howard: Love is something that makes you smile whenever they are there, it makes you happy and gives you the feeling of contentment. It&#039;s about giving without wanting to get anything back. That&#039;s the most basic way of explaining it, when you get pleasure from giving yourself and your time to another person, expressing things and expressing another side to you that no one else knows. It&#039;s when you can talk about anything, like your worst fears - you can be truly open in a way that you can&#039;t be with anyone else.
