to the North, to the South, to sun, to the Moon. Love is everything.

the first and the last thing in life. It is clever and sillybeautiful and ugly 

Love is the best thing in life.

Apostolis Stratos

Love can change your life.People fall in love,

people learn from lovingand that throwslots of sunshine.

Mariniki Tsimbisi

Love is friendship that has caught fire. It is understanding,

mutual confidence, sharing and forgiving. It is loyalty

through good and bad times. It settles for less than perfection

and makes allowances for human weaknesses.Generally, love is life. And if you miss love,

you miss life.

Kostantinos Melissourgos

Love is the East and the West, the North and the South.

It’s a false truth. It is fair and unjust,logic and absurd.

Love is a magical combinationof thousands of feelings.

Love is a partnership of two unique people

who bring out the very best in each other.

Katerina Ximareioti

And, I will wait until my beloved comes,the right person with soft hands

With sparkling eyes and a bright smileto tell me that I’m the missing part of his life,

Although love is considered sweet,it can be a terrible thing.

Love is the madness of the world,which comes from nothing serious at all;

Love is heavy and light,for people who are serious and foolish at the

same time;for people with sick or healthy minds.

Xristina Chaundry

Love is heavy and lightlove is cold and hot

All you needIs to discover it.

Themistoklis Sarikopoulos

Love is madness.Love can guide you to darkness.

Love doesn’t exist.People create it.

And they only believethat one day will meet the person

to live with.BUT NO!

People have a different heart.

Gregory Kevorkian

Love is a curse and it’s a blessingIt is painful but it IS worth its pain

For when everything elseIs about to go away

Love is meant to stayLove is much stronger than hateSo, we all had better have faith

Because one day we’ll understandHow beautiful it is to love.

So, don’t give up when you face a stormBecause love is not that terrible after all!

By Stelios Papelis and Chris Katsoulis

Love is a terrible thingIt comes from nothing.

I love and I hateYou cannot run away from fate.

Love is heavy and lightIt’s like the pale moon at night.

Love is healthy and sickIt is life at its peak.Love is a madness

It is a light in the darknessIt is hot and cold

Love’s flame can never get old.Love is foolish and serious

Like our instincts it’s mysterious.

Chris Moraitis

Love is not an item. It’s not something you buy.Love is the feeling you get

when you know for sure that he/she is the one. You know when you are in love.

You can feel it. Love is to be happy.Love is to feel safe,

to feel that joyful pain in your bones. Love is to feel complete.

Ioli Steker

Love is my best friend Yet, my worst enemy.

It’s heaven and hell at the same time, making you happy but also miserable,

rich or poor;saving as well as destroying you.

You can't live with it neither without it.

         Nikolas Faraklas

Love is a thingthat can be shaped

by how it is been looked upon. If it finds response, it is a good thing.

If it does not, it’s terrible.

Alexandros Sakellaridis

Love is something you can’t touch, you can’t taste,

but you know that there it is! Sometimes,

it can’t be a horrible thing while other times

it’s the best thing that can happen to you!
