Memorable Romantic Quotes from Movies That You Will Love to Tell Your Date

Forgetting to send a bunch of long-stem red roses on Valentine’s Day to your lover can seem to be a disaster but it can help to make up with a gift and a romantic message. Thanks to the crafted performances and the lilting music, most of us tend to go weak at the knees and also shed a tear when seeing mushy romantic movies. Some of the most romantic lines from well-known movies that you can quote when you want to impress your loved one:

“The greatest thing you'll ever learn is just to love, and be loved in return." ~ Moulin Rouge 

Considered a classic, according to http://edition.cnn.com, Moulin Rouge was nominated for eight Oscars, including for the Best Picture. The line, one of the most memorable in the film, simply points out the universal truth that one must know how to love and in turn, also how to be loved by someone else. While some people know very well how to express their love to others, they suffer from an inferiority complex that makes them believe that they do not deserve to be loved or even worthy of being loved. It also points out subtly that there are people who are selfish and never show their love to anyone even though they enjoy being loved by others.

“True love cannot be found where it does not truly exist, nor can it be hidden where it truly does.” ~ Kissing a Fool

The meaning of this very philosophical quote is that love cannot be expected between two people who are not involved romantically with each other; however, if they are in love with each other, the feeling just cannot be hidden from the sight of others. This line points to the fact the romantic love is irrepressible and so effervescent that it cannot be kept under covers but will always break out and make itself apparent. 

“When you realize you want to spend the rest of your life with somebody, you want the rest of your life to start as soon as possible.” ~ When Harry Met Sally

It can be difficult to find true love and when two people realize that they have found the perfect lifelong partner in the other, they are in a big rush to start their lives as a couple because they want to revel in each moment of their love. You can find the best quotes about love by searching online.

“You make me want to be a better man.” ~ As Good As It Gets

Proposing to a lady can be tough for someone who is an introvert and this quote is a fine example of how an intelligent but introverted personality (Jack Nicholson as Melvin Udall) finally gets the courage to ask the woman he loves (Carol Connelly as Helen Hunt), very obliquely to marry him. This shows how you can profess your love to someone without being blunt and avoid the trauma of being refused.

Conclusion 

Romantic movies have plots that are full of ups and downs and only after a long struggle do the lead pair overcome obstacles and get together. During the film, there are many lines that the pair speaks that can provide the perfect answers to someone who is struggling with his emotions to profess his love. Are you away from the love of your life at the moment? Maybe you can find comfort in these separation quotes.
