Margaret Mead Love Quotations

Prayer does not use up artificial energy, doesn't burn up any fossil fuel, doesn't pollute. Neither does song, neither does love, neither does the dance.

Monogamous heterosexual love is probably one of the most difficult, complex and demanding of human relationships.

To demand that another love what one loves is tyranny enough, but to demand that another hate what one hates, is even worse.

You know you love someone when you cannot put into words how they make you feel.

What the world needs is not romantic lovers who are sufficient unto themselves, but husbands and wives who live in communities, relate to other people, carry on useful work and willingly give time and attention to their children.

Love is the invention of a few high cultures ... it is cultural artifact. To make love the requirement of a lifelong marriage is exceedingly difficult, and only a few people can achieve it. I don't believe in setting universal standards that a large proportion of people can't reach.
