A Quote by Alain de Botton

In the early days of love sometimes, you will report an ecstatic feeling you have met someone who seems to understand you without you needing to speak. — © Alain de Botton
In the early days of love sometimes, you will report an ecstatic feeling you have met someone who seems to understand you without you needing to speak.
If you have "needing money" in your vibration, then you will keep attracting needing money. You have to find a way of being happy NOW, feeling good NOW, and being in joy NOW, without the money, because those great feelings are how you will feel with the money. Money doesn't bring happiness - but HAPPINESS BRINGS MONEY.
I know I love going to my gym - I have a whole list of things I love to do by myself without needing someone else to make me happy.
I'm human, I feel, I understand. That's the highest level of love, is understanding - when you can understand someone, when you can love them with their flaws and their faults. So I understand, I consider. I may speak the truth, but I'll consider your feelings, too.
Leo Messi is a little football God. I love playing alongside him. We understand each other without needing to talk.
Our world cannot be complete without you, and without hearing what you have to say. True justice cannot exist without compassion; compassion cannot exist without understanding. But no one will understand you unless you speak, and are able to speak clearly (Sister Janet to the students, page 155).
Needing someone is like needing a parachute. If they are not there the first time you need them, chances are you won't be needing them again.
I know our culture will sometimes understand a love for Jesus as weakness. There is this lie floating around that says I am supposed to be able to do life alone, without any help, without stopping to worship something bigger than myself. But I actually believe there is something bigger than me, and I need for there to be something bigger than me. I need someone to put awe inside me; I need to come second to someone who has everything figured out.
Sometimes you can just date without needing love, date for companionship, for passionate make-outs, for snuggling.
Unconditional love with someone you've never met is a straightforward feeling that is so overwhelming and fulfilling.
Love is needing someone. Love is putting up with someone's bad qualities because they somehow complete you.
It's worth pointing out that no one faults a male protagonist for falling in love. What is it about a boy needing a girl that seems to round out his character, while a girl needing a boy can be dismissed as pathetic?
There are some people who could hear you speak a thousand words, and still not understand you... And there are others who will understand - without you even speaking a word.
Yes, I dont know why, but I have never been disappointed, and I often was in the early days, without feeling at the same time, or a moment later, an undeniable relief.
I think women love very hard. We love men. We just love with everything we have. And sometimes, I don't know that that love is met with the type of dignity that we wish it would be met with.
I knew nothing about football, then someone showed me a film of Petit and I realised how interesting the game could be. He is divine. When I met him I could barely speak, he was so gorgeous. Women will love that show.
Needing someone doesn't make you weak, it makes you feel. And feeling is how you know you're alive.
