Beautiful phrases in English with translation: about love, quotes from songs, useful expressions. Quotes about love in English

When love sweeps us off our feet, we say sincere and tender things, think with our hearts and act naively. When you are truly in love, cherished words seem to be the most difficult words in life. What if the person is not impressed by your confession, or, worse, it’s only about the friendzone? It's better to be rejected than to bottle up your feelings. Why? Because you will be able to know whether the relationship will develop in the right direction or not. A simple and timeless “I love you” is enough... Or is it not enough?

In fact, you are capable of saying much more than a simple "I love you." Therefore, we offer you a set of phrases in which everyone can choose something to their liking. It doesn’t matter at all what level of English you speak - watch and remember, try and open up! After all, love is always relevant. So bring it on!
