We've compiled a list of the best quotes about love that organize all of your thoughts, plus add something new to the table.

Sweet, charming, and, okay, a liiittle mushy, these sayings about love are sure to melt your heart (or your partner's heart—say, during a thoughtful dinner for two?). There are dozens of funny, happy quotes here, like this hilarious line from Dolly Parton: "Love is something sent from heaven to worry the hell out of you." But there are also plenty of sentimental favorites that double as fabulous Valentine's Day Instagram captions.
