Love is Patient Quotations

Since time began, humanity has been pondering love. We are still asking if love is patient. Love is  in romance, marriage and the family. It is felt in the spirit and the flesh.  This is the emotion that some say, most amplifies and inspires people from all over the world. From birth to death, we all experience it. And we love people after they have gone from the physical world. 

“Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It is not rude, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs.
